"The whole territory of Luhansk region controlled by the Ukrainian forces is without power," he said.

"The work of water utilities and boilers is stopped, the trolley buses aren’t working. It has to be recalled, that this afternoon the militants fired on the thermal power plant in the village of Shastya from the village of Vesela Hora and hit the transformer," Moskal said.
