As of January 4, 95 settlements in Volyn, Kyiv, and Donetsk region remain without electricity due to bad weather.

With the ongoing Russian attacks on energy objects, there are electricity disruptions in 406 towns and villages in the frontline regions.

The latest Russian strikes caused damage to the energy facilities in Kharkiv and Mykolaiv regions.

The emergency recovery works are carried out depending on the security situation and with the permission of the Ukrainian military.

In general, the situation in the grid is stable and controlled. The production of electricity fully meets consumption needs.

However, the company urges the population to use electricity sparingly.

Earlier, the company’s CEO said that the energy system of Ukraine will not collapse in case of possible Russian attacks.

Five armored vehicles “Kozak” have received a new mission – thanks to the support of Metinvest, they have been upgraded to full-fledged command and staff vehicles. These upgraded vehicles are now operating on the front line.

A kamikaze drone flies directly toward an armored personnel carrier. But instead of penetrating the hull, it explodes on a steel screen. The crew survives. This is the new reality for Ukrainian forces, who have received enhanced protection thanks to the Metinvest project within “Steel Front of Rinat Akhmetov”.

To commemorate the third anniversary of the full-scale invasion, “Bukvy” has compiled data on the largest donors supporting the Armed Forces of Ukraine. Among them there are charitable foundations and businesses. The list includes, in particular, foundations that provide assistance exclusively from their own resources, without fundraising (such as SCM by Rinat Akhmetov, Epicenter, etc.).

In just 1.5 months, Ukrainian specialists have created an innovative protective shell for the control modules of anti-aircraft missile systems (AMS) Patriot and Iris-T SLM. This development was another step in strengthening Ukraine’s defense capabilities, aimed at protecting key elements of the air defense system from debris damage.

Military serviceman of the International Legion for the Defense of Ukraine with the call sign “Paradox” is the crew commander of the American M113 armored personnel carrier. He is a master at using it and is constantly improving, because the legionnaire’s skills are tested every day in battle. You have to drive to the front lines, often under artillery fire and drone attacks.
