According to LEO, the Luhansk Thermal Power Plant (belongs to DTEK) had an incident, resulting in 220 kV power line getting damaged. The most populated part of Luhansk oblast Government Controlled Areas (GCA) is cut off from electricity, which stopping piped water supplies to GCA, and also stop water pumps to the Karbonit system that serves towns in Non-Government Controlled Areas (NGCA). Some major electricity users such as Popasnyanskyi Vodakanal (PVK) and Lysychanskvodocanal (LVK), as well as other water facilities in the affected area, are cut off. As a result, all cities connected to the Karbonit system from both GCA and NGCA sides, are now not receiving safe piped water from the usual source. In GCA areas Popasna, Hirske and Zolote are affected (around 44,000 people) and in NGCA Alchevsk, Stakhanov, Brianka, Pervomaisk and Kirovsk are the most affected (180,000 people) with Alchevsk, Krasnyi Luch and Antratsyt also affected to a lesser extent. From GCA side next cities are also affected: Sieverodonetsk, Lysychansk, Kreminna and Rubizhne (285,000). In total from GCA side (PVK and other vodocanals) 329, 000 people are affected by lack of access to safe drinking water. Note, that Petrovskyi waterintake (belongs to PVK) is not affected by this electricity incident. The water facility is still in operation and continues supplying water to Luhansk city without any interruptions. According to LEO, DTEK has started restoring electricity supply. Preliminary, electricity supply will be fully restored by the end of the day. The WASH cluster is in contact with PVK, LVK and LEO to track if any updates. WASH Incident Report .

  • I Impact O T of Th Oblasts E Conf S on Th Infr Lict in He
    15 September 2014 Kiev IMPACT OF THE CONFLICT IN LUHANSK AND DONETSK OBLASTS ON THE SOCIAL AND ECONOMIC INFRASTRUCTURE SUMMARY This paper presents a summary of the damage assessment in areas affected by the armed conflict of Luhansk and Donets oblasts in the period since the beginning of the conflict until 14 September 2014. As of 14 September 2014, 1,968 facilities (including social infrastructure, residential houses, and enterprises) were reported to receive the damage, amounting to a monetary loss of total UAH 5.958 bn hryvnias, or US$ 440 mln (estimated, without account of unconfirmed damages in the residential sector, disruption of contracts, and lost profits of business enterprises). Among those reported 995 facilities are located in Luhansk oblast (UAH 1.094 million), and 783 facilities are in Donetsk oblast (UAH 3.964 billion). 190 facilities, with an estimated loss of UAH 900 m, belong to railway infrastructure situated in the territory of both oblasts. As can be seen in the consolidated table (page 6 and 7), 1230 housing buildings were damaged (667 in Luhansk and 563 in Donetsk oblasts), and this affected the shelter of 6,618 families (including 1,844 in Luhansk oblast and 4,774 in Donetsk oblast). Due to different limitations in determining the exact number of affected families, the real number of affected families is, most likely, of a greater scale than presented in this report. Indirectly (by worsened access to public services) the conflict in Donbass affected the majority of the 6,6 million population of the Donetsk and Luhansk oblasts. It is worth noting, that the report indicates another 1873 housing buildings damaged during the conflict, however no verification (geographical/address localization) was possible by the team of data collectors, and this number remained outside the main analysis in this paper.
