Helping critical infrastructure workers
Power plants, energy grids, water treatment facilities, and other vital civil infrastructure facilities are prime targets for missile strikes. Not only do these strikes cut civilians off from water, heat, and electricity, but they endanger the lives of the workers—including engineers, technicians, and support staff—at these facilities.
Up to 3 workers die in each strike, and many of those present are also endangered by serious injuries—crush injuries, piercing injuries, and deep wounds that can cause death by blood loss. Workers frequently do not know how to provide first aid on such injuries, meaning the death toll rises.
Mission Kharkiv is providing first aid training and kits to workers in these facilities to help them save their colleague’s lives.
