(MENAFN- UkrinForm) This was reported to Ukrinform by the press service of the oil and gas company.

“The state-owned Naftogaz Group has allocated USD 1 billion of its own funds to purchase gas for the winter. Another USD 1.5 billion has been raised to import gas from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, the Norwegian government, and other international financial institutions,” the statement said.

Serhiy Koretsky, chairman of the board of Naftogaz of Ukraine , noted that in February of this year, 42% of Ukrainian gas production was destroyed as a result of enemy attacks. He stressed that before the heating season, the enemy is likely to attack the gas infrastructure again, and this is terrorism in its purest form.

Koretsky said that Naftogaz has already contracted 95% of the gas needed to start the heating season.
