Power in Avdiivka restored, - Governor Zhebrivskyi

Head of the Donetsk regional military and civil administration Pavlo Zhebrivskyi says energy supply in embattled town of Avdiivka has been fully restored.

As reported by Censor.NET, the official wrote on Facebook.

"The energy supply in Avdiivka has been restored! The town remained without power for four days. The Russian side of the JCCC (Joint Center for Control and Coordination of cease-fire in the Donbas - Ed.) was unable to guarantee cease-fire in the area of the damaged power transmission line over four days. However, the town did not give up but kept going and defending itself. The Ruscists (an acronym for Russian fascists - Ed.) intended to spread havoc among the locals. But the town continued opposing the enemy! This nation is unconquerable!"
