Details. “Thanks to the active work of power engineers, who quickly restored the power, mobile operators reconnected half of the base stations. This allowed millions of people to finally call their relatives and find out the latest news,” the Minister said.
According to the statement, the situation has “significantly improved” in Kirovohrad, Dnipropetrovsk, Volyn, Mykolaiv, Poltava, Kharkiv, and Zhytomyr oblasts.
Mobile communication is also stabilising in Cherkasy, Lviv, Rivne, Vinnytsia and Chernivtsi oblasts. Repair works are underway.
At the same time, other oblasts still report difficulties with communication, especially in Donetsk and Zaporizhzhia oblasts.
“But power engineers and telecom companies are working twenty-four seven to restore communication throughout Ukraine as soon as possible,” Mr. Fedorov assured.
