"This morning, we managed to restore most of the supplies. As of now, electricity has almost completely been restored for Sumy region," Zelenskyy wrote on Telegram.
According to him, all the necessary resources for this have been provided.
"And the representatives of Ukraine at the negotiations today in Turkey will again insist on the need for an immediate and complete ceasefire, in particular such strikes on civilian infrastructure," Zelenskyy added.
As reported, the Ukrainian delegation arrived in Turkey and began the first bilateral meetings with the Turkish side in Ankara. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan held a meeting with the head of the Office of the President of Ukraine Andriy Yermak.
