Hourly gas supply: are new restrictions possible due to attacks
Ukraine does not intend to introduce gas supply schedules for the population. “Naftogaz of Ukraine” company urged people to be careful and not to believe rumors circulating on social networks about possible hourly gas supply restrictions.
According to information, in February 2026, amid the difficult energy situation caused by Russia’s massive shelling and problems with electricity supply, messages began appearing on the Internet about the possibility of introducing gas supply schedules, particularly in western regions such as Transcarpathia.
Social media users reported the spread of information with similar claims. For example, one resident of Mukachevo asked on Facebook whether gas would really be supplied according to the schedule.
“Naftogaz” denied these rumors, stressing that no decisions on hourly gas supply to the population had been made. The company also noted that the information on possible gas supply schedules is incorrect and does not reflect reality.
The company urged citizens to refer only to official sources of information. All important announcements are posted on the official Naftogaz website, and no announcements regarding the introduction of hourly gas supply have been published there to date.
