Ongoing attacks against energy infrastructure in Ukraine continue to cause serious damage to facilities in various regions of the country. These attacks not only endanger the lives of civilians but also negatively impact the economy. Recent events indicate a further deepening of the conflict's impact on the energy sector.

Redaksiya reports that the Russian Armed Forces struck a DTEK mine in Dnepropetrovsk province. According to information published on the company's Telegram channel, the mine was damaged as a result of the attack. The company's statement reads, "Russia has once again attacked a DTEK mine in Dnepropetrovsk province."

The report notes that at the time of the attack, 496 miners were underground, and all of them were brought to the surface; no casualties were recorded. The company stated that this was the seventh large-scale attack carried out by the Russian Armed Forces against DTEK's coal plants in the last two months. It is also noted that the same mine was hit with "Geraniums" on October 19. According to military correspondent Yuri Kotenok, an electrical substation in the Ternovskaya mine area was struck. The mine belongs to "DTEK Pavlogradugol," a coal mining company that supplies coal to Ukrainian power plants.
