'Through an agreement with the European Commission, Ukraine has received 5,876
solar panels to help power hospitals across the country, Ukraine's Energy
Ministry announced to social media on July 2.

As Russia's attacks on Ukrainian energy infrastructure have increased,
Ukrainians continue to face lengthy, daily interruptions in access to
electricity.

The panels, which were produced by Italian manufacturer Enel, will produce a
total capacity of approximately 2 megawatts of electricity for hospitals in
Zhytomyr, Volyn, Khmelnytskyi, Kyiv, and Odesa oblasts, the Energy Ministry
said.

"In the conditions of constant attacks by Russia on Ukraine's energy system,
the medical infrastructure becomes very vulnerable. Power outages affect the
operation of hospitals," Ukraine's Health Minister Viktor Liashko said in a
statement.

"To enable medical institutions to provide uninterrupted medical care to
patients, we are working on equipping them with alternative energy sources,
including solar panels. This is an important step towards energy independence
and the stable operation of medical institutions."'
