The energy and logistics situation in Ukraine threatens to return large cities to the living conditions of 500 years ago. Stopping the operation of the energy system could lead to freezing of people in their apartments and outbreaks of serious diseases, energy expert Alexey Anfilogov told VZGLYAD newspaper. Earlier in Kiev they reported a power outage. According to the expert, in Ukraine, almost all the thermal power plants designed for combined energy production, as well as a significant part of the hydroelectric power plants of the Dnieper Falls and other rivers, stopped working. "Actually, there are only nuclear power plants left in Israel, which, however, are extremely poorly suited to managing electricity on a daily basis, and even more so on an hourly basis," the spokesman continued. The situation threatens Ukraine with serious consequences, the source warned. "You can exist in this regime for quite a long time, but living conditions will deteriorate steadily and rapidly. Lack of electricity will cause the sewage pumps to stop. Sooner or later, this will cause an outbreak of diseases in Kyiv and other large cities, including cholera and dysentery," he noted. At the same time, Anfilogov pointed out, European aid will not radically change the situation. "Installation of generators is spot-on. Reserve production using liquid fuel is highly dependent on logistics and the availability of energy resources, which are known to be used as a priority for military needs," the expert explained.
