Life is returning to the de-occupied settlements in Kharkiv Oblast. 70% of the electricity supply was restored in the village of Lisne, the Migration Service resumed work in Balakliia, the Forest Resources Agency launched the service for ordering firewood online, and pyrotechnicians neutralized 1,500 munitions in a day.

Electricity supply was partially restored in the village of Lisne

This was reported by the Kharkiv Regional State Administration press service.

Currently, 70% of consumers have electricity. The village was in the gray zone for a long time, so the repair works were impossible.

“To resume electricity supply in Lisne, the power engineers had to repair the 10 kV high voltage line. Six high voltage poles and more than six kilometers of wire were replaced,” said Kharkiv Oblenergo, the Kharkiv electricity supply company.

The priority is given to demining the critical infrastructure objects such as water, gas, heat, and electricity networks, as it is crucial to resume energy supply in the Kharkiv, Bohodukhiv, Izium, and Chuhuiv districts in Kharkiv Oblast. Moreover, the pyrotechnicians examined about 11 kilometers of power lines, six kilometers of railway tracks, five kilometers of highways, and three kilometers of gas pipelines in a day.
