"Last night, Russia once again carried out a massive missile and drone strike on the gas infrastructure. Production facilities sustained damage. As soon as the security situation allowed, specialists began assessing the damage and starting recovery work," he wrote.

All necessary measures are being taken to address the aftermath of the attacks and stabilize gas supply.

Galushchenko said that the goal of these attacks is to halt the extraction of gas, which is essential for meeting citizens' domestic needs and centralized heating.
