According to the Ministry of Defense of the aggressor country, the attack was carried out by "high-precision weapons of long range and percussion drones. " The Russian side cynically justified the blow, claiming that attacked objects were allegedly related to ensuring the work of the Ukrainian military-industrial complex. "The purpose of the impact is achieved. All objects are affected," the message reads. One of the goals of the attack was the Ivano-Frankivsk region.
According to the head of Ova Svetlana Onishchuk, part of the region remained without electricity. The main blow came to Burshtyn TPP - an important object of Ukrainian energy located in Burshtyn. During the attack, the residents heard about eight explosions, which caused interruptions with communication and disconnection of several cities, including Kalush, Burshtin and Ivano-Frankivsk.
According to Onishchuk, the victims were avoided, and the emergency services promptly started the restoration of power supply. By the middle of the day, the electricity supply in the region was restored. Work is also underway to restore heat supply. "Currently, they have been fed warmly to medical facilities - a hospital and a palliative center. Actually, where one of the modular boiler rooms is already working.
Construction and commissioning work on other boiler rooms is ongoing - for 8 and 10 megawatts. People work for Christmas to start heat," The head of the administration on social networks reported. Meanwhile, the SES of Ivano-Frankivsk region reported that the Carpathian rescuers eliminated the consequences of another Russian attack. 114 rescuers and 36 pieces of equipment were involved in the elimination of the consequences of the emergency.
Burshtyn TPP, which is part of DTEK Westernergo, is a key object of the electricity system of Western Ukraine. The station includes 12 200 MW power units each. Previously, two or three power units stablely provided electricity exports. This object has repeatedly undergone shelling: in the spring of 2024 and in the fall of 2022. As of the end of June 2024, Burshtyn TPPs suffered more than 12 missile attacks, which resulted in extremely strong destruction.
