Every hydroelectric power plant in Ukraine has been attacked by Russia – Ukrhydroenergo

"Unfortunately, today there is not a single plant that has not been attacked by the Russian aggressor," Syrota stated.

Due to these attacks, Ukrainian hydroelectric power plants have lost over 40% of their power generation capacity, while thermal power plants have suffered losses exceeding 80%.

The Kakhovka Hydroelectric Power Plant has been completely lost, the Dnipro HPP has sustained significant damage, and other hydroelectric plants are in the process of recovery.

"Our task is to recover as much as possible before the fall-winter period, but it is a challenging task today because of the constant missile strikes, which occur at least every week or month... Forecasting is very difficult at the moment," Syrota added.

Debris removal is still ongoing at the Kyiv HPP following a massive Russian strike on Aug. 26. Experts are currently unable to fully assess all the technical consequences of the attack, but there is no threat of flooding or a dam breach, according to Syrota.

Russia launched 127 missiles and 109 strike drones against Ukraine on Aug. 26, of which the Ukrainian Air Force shot down 102 missiles and 99 UAVs.
