Russian Armed Forces struck a DTEK mine near Dnipropetrovsk.


Last night, August 31, Russian forces again struck one of DTEK's mines in the Dnipropetrovsk region. The company has not yet reported the exact damage caused or how the attack affected the facility's operations.

This is not the first attack on the company's mines in recent times. August 17 Drones launched a massive attack on one of DTEK's mines, causing serious damage. Earlier, in July of this year, Russian forces had already attacked a DTEK mine in the region.

On August 18, Russian forces struck a thermal power plant owned by DTEK. As a result, the facility sustained significant damage and completely ceased power generation. The company's official channel reported the attack without specifying the region in which the damaged plant was located. The statement stated that the equipment was severely damaged.

If statistics are collected since 2022, DTEK Group thermal power plants have been hit more than 230 times.

Attacks on coal infrastructure in the Dnipropetrovsk region have become systematic. These facilities are of strategic importance to the Ukrainian economy, as they supply the country with energy resources used, among other things, to supply the Ukrainian Armed Forces. As a result of the constant attacks, DTEK is suffering significant losses, and the company regularly shuts down its facilities for restoration work.

    This is not the first time this has happened.

    As I understand it, this is not the last one...

    There's no need to dig mines; sometimes it's easier to flood a mine than to restore it. But those same coal heaps on the surface burn just fine, and there's no way to extinguish them.

    Was this a congratulation on Miner's Day?
