“The essential infrastructure works on generators,” Kiper said.
A person was injured after the attack, he added.
Russia has launched 142 Shahed time drones overnight and simulators from several directions, including the Crimean Peninsula, Ukrainian air forces said on Sunday morning.
According to them, 126 of them were annihilated, and 16 drones hit 10 places. In the message on Telegram of the Ukrainian Air Force there were no more details.
Until the time of writing this news, there was no reaction from Russia, which continuously attacked the critical infrastructure of Ukraine during the 42 months of the war that Moscow launched with a large -scale invasion of Ukraine.
