Russian attacks have damaged all of Ukraine's power plants, but the power system continues to operate thanks to the efforts of energy workers, physical protection of facilities, and support from partners in the field of air defense. This was stated by the President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky said during a speech at the Munich Security Conference.
Despite extensive damage to energy infrastructure, Ukraine continues to produce electricity.
"We are still generating electricity thanks to our people. And we have preserved our system thanks to the physical protection of our facilities and everyone who helps us with air defense," — Zelensky noted.
He emphasized that one of the most difficult situations is when air defense units are forced to spend all available missiles to repel massive attacks, and replenishment of stocks is delayed, despite intelligence information about possible new strikes in the near future.
According to him, during one of the recent massive attacks, Ukraine used missiles that had arrived just a few days earlier, which highlights the ongoing need for additional air defense supplies.
