Zelenskyy visits front lines in Ukrainian region of Kherson

• Volodymyr Zelenskyy visited Kherson to restore energy infrastructure.
• And repair equipment destroyed by Russian shelling.
• A few months after some of it was liberated from Russian rule he visited Kherson.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is traveling to the front-line city of Kherson in the south.

A few months after some of it was liberated from Russian rule he visited Kherson.

In a hospital in the eastern Donetsk region close to the war lines, Zelenskyy surprised injured soldiers on Wednesday.

“A working trip to the Kherson region. The village of Posad Pokrovske, where many houses and social infrastructure facilities were damaged as a result of Russia’s full-scale aggression,” he said in a Telegram post on Thursday. “Electricity and water supply are being restored, a medical outpatient clinic is being rebuilt, and people are returning.”

“I talked to the locals about their current issues and needs. We will restore and rebuild everything,” he added.

The majority of Kherson‘s energy infrastructure was destroyed by Russian forces before they withdrew to the Dnipro river’s eastern bank. Power outages are still common as a result of the two sides’ ongoing artillery exchanges, which have slowed down repairs.

A local energy facility was visited by Zelenskyy.

“We considered the restoration of electricity supply in the de-occupied territories and the repair of equipment destroyed as a result of Russian shelling,” he said. “We have to ensure full restoration and protection of our energy sector.”
