Nova Poshta switched 147 branches in Odesa to generators after shelling

19 December , 2025  

Nova Poshta, Ukraine’s leading express delivery service from the Nova Group, is operating 147 branches in Odesa on generators, while the state postal operator Ukrposhta is providing a full range of services in 72 branches despite power supply problems after shelling in the region.

“In isolated cases (several branches), where it was not possible to connect generators immediately due to technical issues, operators accepted and delivered parcels manually so as not to interrupt customer service until the situation was resolved as quickly as possible,” Ukrposhta said in a comment to Interfax-Ukraine.

The Nova Poshta Telegram channel notes that the company’s branches offer the opportunity to recharge phones, use the internet, and warm up. Ukrposhta provides the same services in its branches.

Separately, Ukrposhta added in a comment to the agency that the branches’ working hours have not changed.

As reported, as a result of a massive missile and drone attack by the Russian Federation on the night of December 12-13, four 330 kV substations of the National Energy Company Ukrenergo were damaged and approximately 60% of consumers in Odesa and the region were cut off from the power supply. A significant portion of consumers were left without electricity and heating for three days or more.

In addition, on December 18, the enemy launched another attack on the infrastructure, which again led to power outages.
