Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal has made the necessary decisions to ensure water supply to Marhanets and other settlements in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. This was announced by President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy in his evening video address, as reported by Ukrinform. “The Prime Minister has made the necessary decisions to ensure water supply to the city of Marhanets and other cities in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast… A shameful situation has arisen due to the lack of water there and a very slow reaction at the regional level – from the departments responsible for water supply. The responsible person will be dismissed. I expect that regional and local authorities will not be sleeping and will react much faster to people’s needs. The time of war is a time to work 24/7,” Zelenskyy stated. He also informed that the mechanisms of support for agrarians, approved by the government, will be operational within a few days. “Today, the Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine has already made the first decisions from the support package for agrarians – producers who are currently in a difficult situation due to Russian attacks on our ports and the maritime corridor. Prime Minister Shmyhal reported on the practical steps that will be implemented in the coming days. Specifically, preferential loans were approved today at the government meeting, and portfolio guarantees will be approved in the near future. This means concrete financing to increase all opportunities, all volumes for storage. There will be additional decisions,” the President emphasized. **Read also:** **Due to the shallowing of the Dniester, Ukraine and Moldova have agreed to reduce discharges from the reservoir** The Head of State also added that the energy supply in Kherson Oblast, damaged by Russian shelling, will be restored in the near future.
