Russian mass drone attack on Ukraine's critical infrastructure injured three energy engineers at one of the thermal power plants (TPP), Ukraine's largest energy operator DTEK said on Telegram on June 20.
TPP equipment was seriously damaged. Necessary services are dealing with the attack aftermath.
This is already the seventh mass attack on the company's thermal power plant over the last three months, DTEK said.
