Today, all day, special attention is paid to our region of Zaporizhia, Dnipro: the situation there is very difficult after the Russian attacks. There have been many breaks, and the recovery is ongoing. Some of the electricity is already being restored, but there is still a lot of work ahead of us. I want to thank every repair team, all our energy workers, everyone who helps. New air alarms all the time and new strikes. This makes recovery much more difficult. But all the necessary forces are engaged, the equipment is there, and there must be a result.
The Russians operate in such a way that they take one area as a special target and for several days concentrate attacks on that area - on everything, networks, substations. Since the beginning of September, there have been the most entries and hits precisely in the Dnipro region: 131 entries. One hundred and twenty-five - in the Kyiv region. More than a hundred entrances - in Zhytomyr region, Sumy region. Accordingly, there are most tasks for energy workers, community services, the State Emergency Service of Ukraine.
It's important that people get help to get power back on schedule, absolutely. However, it is not easy. This week there was a decision by the European Commission: we agreed with Ursula von der Leyen that Ukraine will receive additional and extraordinary energy support. It is for our cities and communities that it is most difficult now. Additional generators, other equipment, funds, certainly to support sustainability. I want to thank you for that.
