"From August 6 to August 10, power engineers will carry out emergency repair work, which will result in the shutdown of substations supplying electricity to water supply facilities", - the local utility company "Water of Donbass" said in a statement.
Without a full power supply, the equipment cannot pump water at its previous capacity, utility workers explained to residents of the so-called "DNR".
As a consolation, "Water of Donbass" said that "specialists are working on-site to promptly restart the facilities immediately after the power engineers complete their work".
As reported earlier, serious problems with supplying the population with running water began in the occupied part of the Donetsk oblast after the start of the russian aggression. Water is supplied once every three days for only a few hours.
