This morning, 9 November, in Sumy, Russians deliberately targeted an energy workers’ vehicle with an FPV drone.
Ukrenergo said that three company employees were injured.
All of them were promptly taken to hospital, where they are receiving the necessary medical care. One of the injured is in a serious condition.
“Russia continues to deliberately attack not only energy infrastructure, but also the people who keep it running and restore damaged equipment. Our energy workers operate every day under constant danger so that Ukrainians have electricity. And today’s strike is yet another reminder of the price this work comes at,” the statement said.
- Recently, a Russian drone attacked a DTEK repair crew in a frontline region. As a result of the strike, 50-year-old energy worker Mykola Bohatyriov was killed.
