UN HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT SAYS RUSSIAN ATTACKS ON UKRAINE’S ENERGY SYSTEM BREACHED PRINCIPLES OF INTERNATIONAL LAW
After visiting?DTEK?facilities and other energy infrastructure across Ukraine, experts from the United Nations Human Rights Monitoring Mission (HRMMU) concluded that the destruction of critical energy infrastructure (including critical assets such as heating facilities during the winter months), “breaches principles of international humanitarian law designed to protect civilians.”
DTEK CEO Maxim Timchenko ?said: “This comprehensive dossier of evidence compiled by the United Nations points to only one conclusion: that russia is deliberately trying to terrorise Ukrainians into surrender. Not only is this strategy illegal under international law, it will ultimately fail. In rebuilding what we have lost, Ukraine is creating a stronger, more resilient and greener energy system.”

FEATURED IN INTERNATIONAL MEDIA?
In an op-ed published in The Times , DTEK CEO Maxim Timchenko has outlined the urgent need for a strategic approach to protect and rebuild Ukraine's energy infrastructure, likening it to a modern-day Marshall Plan for the country's power sector.
The article outlines several innovative solutions being implemented across the country. These include the delivery of equipment for supporting power system from abroad. At DTEK, efforts are underway to rebuild power stations and source used turbines and transformers from Eastern Europe.
However, Maxim Timchenko stressed that these efforts must be complemented by sufficient air defence systems from Ukraine's allies. He argued that while air defences are crucial for immediate protection, a more strategic approach is necessary for long-term energy security.
