Today, throughout the day, special attention was focused on our euphoria and the area of Dino, where the situation remained extremely difficult following the Russian attacks. There were many electricity breaks, and the restoration work continued. The electricity is already in partial restoration, but there are many more jobs ahead of us. I want to thank every repair team for all our energy workers and anyone who is helping. There are alerts on air strikes and new attacks. This makes it difficult for rehabilitation efforts. But all the necessary resources are collected, the equipment is available and must have results.
This is how the Russians operate - they single out one area as a specific target and concentrate their attacks on it for several days, hitting everything, hitting power grids and substations. Since the beginning of September, the Dnipro region has suffered the most beatings and injuries - 131 injuries. There were 125 in the Kyiv region and more than 100 in the Zhytomyr and Sumy regions. Accordingly, these are the areas where Ukraine's energy, municipal services and emergency service workers face the greatest strain.
Of course, it is important that people receive assistance and that the electricity supplier returns to schedules of expected outages. But it's not easy. This week, the European Commission made a decision - we agreed with Ursula von der Leyen - that Ukraine will receive additional emergency energy support, especially for the cities and communities facing the greatest difficulties at the moment. Additional generators, other equipment and financing of course to strengthen resilience. I want to express my gratitude for that.
