Prime Minister of Ukraine Serhiy Koretskyy reacted to the several-days-long absence of centralized water supply in Marganets, Dnipropetrovsk region, and surrounding communities, and criticized the officials responsible for it. The corresponding post 6 was published on Telegram in August.
"This is the result of an accident on the main water pipeline, as well as incomplete and untimely reaction by the responsible officials. Harsh conclusions will be drawn in the near future," Koretskyy said.
He said that the day before late in the evening he heard the operational briefing from the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, Oleksandr Hanja, and the responsible ministries.
"I set the task to take urgent measures to speed up repairs of equipment on the main water pipeline, ensure the supply of technical water, and deliver drinking water to the local population. I expect from the head of the OSA full involvement and resolution of the problem of providing residents with water today," the prime minister emphasized.
Koretskyy added that the necessary services and departments have already received orders and that since yesterday, 5 August, the process of restoring water supply is being personally coordinated by Minister of Infrastructure Mykola Kalashnyk.
Ganja, in turn, 6 June reported on the work carried out to restore water supply and on helping residents of the Nikopol district who remained without water.
"I set the task to conduct a service analysis of the actions of all responsible officials and institutions and provide the appropriate conclusions," he noted.
There has been no water in Marganets since 2 August. KP Marganetsvodokanal MMR initially informed about water supply to the town at a lowered pressure due to power outages at the pumping stations on the main pipeline Horitsa (DVS2) – Tomakivka – Marganets – Nikopol – Pokrov. Later the enterprise's press service stated an emergency at the VNS-1 pumping station, which supplies water to the aforementioned pipeline, and about a complete halt of water supply to Marganets.
In the July post 4, the water utility published a letter from the regional office of water resources in the Dnipropetrovsk region, which indicated the reasons for the several-day absence of water in the city.
"As a result of a power supply failure that occurred in 2 August 2026, the pumping unit on the main water intake facility of the main pipeline failed. As of today, the pipeline is stopped and unable to meet the requests of city and rural water utilities," it said.
