Quote: "As a result of the night attack on the Kherson hromada by Russian occupation forces, a critical infrastructure facility has been damaged."

Details: Specialists have already begun emergency restoration work. The repairs may take about a week, and during this time, the water pressure in the city’s supply network may decrease.

"Experts from the Kherson Water Utility are taking all possible measures to stabilise network pressure and restore an uninterrupted water supply," the administration concluded.

Background:

• On 18 March, the Kremlin stated that Putin endorsed a proposal by US President Donald Trump for Ukraine and Russia to mutually refrain from striking energy infrastructure for 30 days, issuing an appropriate order to the Russian military.
• However, in the early hours of 19 March, Russia launched a large-scale kamikaze drone attack, targeting civilian infrastructure in several oblasts of Ukraine. A direct hit was recorded on a hospital in the city of Sumy, as well as strikes on cities in Donetsk Oblast.
