Igor Klymenko: All services continue to eliminate the consequences of the explosion of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power plant, even though the enemy has shelled the region 660 times in July alone
“During July, Russian occupiers shelled Kherson region more than 660 times. 130 people were injured: 30 were killed and 107 wounded. The enemy does not allow people to recover after the explosion of the Kakhovskaya hydroelectric power plant. Today he held a meeting of the headquarters on the elimination of the consequences of flooding. Yes, daily shelling greatly complicates the situation. But the responsible services continue to work. Ensuring a stable water supply is still the number 1 issue. Settlements of Kherson region, where there is no water supply, are provided with potable and technical water. Preparatory work for drilling wells is already at the final stage,” the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Igor Klymenko wrote in his Telegram channel.
The Minister also said that the clearing of houses and streets continues. Every day, municipal workers remove more than 1200 tons of garbage from the Kherson neighborhood of Kherson alone. Power engineers are working on the full return of electricity to the population, but in some places the groundwater level does not yet allow this to be done.
“All problematic issues are under control. Liquidation measures continue,” Igor Klymenko said.
