People in a freezing town in southern Ukraine have thanked Russia and President Putin for restoring gas supplies on Monday evening. The town’s residents, who have been without gas for several days, pleaded for Russian help during a bitter cold spell.
“Thanks Putin. He promised us gas and he delivered. Without gas we would have been frozen,” a resident from Genichesk told Ruptly. Genichesk , a port city in the Kherson Region, is home to over 25,000 people, who began suffering severe gas shortages when the thermometers plunged to -14 degrees Celsius over the weekend. By Monday, over 1,500 residents in the Kherson region were left without gas, as authorities struggled with the decreased pressure in a municipal pipeline. Local residents said they were left without gas for at least three days.
