Energetic, positive, and passionate about his work. That is how colleagues describe Maksym Yaroshenko – a war veteran and employee at Zaporizhstal.Maksym joined the company straight after completing his studies in 2017. He started as an electrician and gradually mastered the complex work of repairing and commissioning the plant’s weighing systems. He was helped in taking his first professional steps by his mentor, Stanislav Buhaichenko, an experienced electrical engineer. Back then, in peacetime, Stanislav taught Maksym the finer points of the profession, passed on his knowledge and supported his young colleague."The work is painstaking; it requires attention to detail and good eyesight. There are many weighing systems at the plant, and they all must be accurate and reliable. Now, with power cuts happening, the equipment breaks down more often, so there’s plenty of work,” says Maksym.With the start of the Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine, Maksym volunteered to defend his countr

All-terrain pick-up trucks will augment the unmanned vehicle forces in Zaporizhzhia region. Off-road vehicles in the Ukrainian army are not just transport, but one of the key elements of combat effectiveness on the front line. These manoeuvrable and fast vehicles allow troops to navigate rough terrain, deliver personnel, ammunition and equipment to operational sites, evacuate the wounded and quickly change their location. Thanks to their off-road capability and reliability, such vehicles help carry out combat missions in the challenging conditions of the front line and enhance the safety of military personnel. For these very reasons, the enemy targets these vehicles, seeking to weaken the logistics of the Ukraine's Defence Forces. This is precisely why the need for vehicles is constant, regardless of the branch of the armed forces. As part of Rinat Akhmetov’s Steel Front defence initiative, Metinvest has provided two pick-up trucks to the UAV operators of the 23rd Khortytsia Separate

Since the beginning of the full-scale russian invasion, the companies of System Capital Management (SCM) of the Ukrainian businessman Rinat Akhmetov have invested about $4 billion (over UAH 150.5 billion at the weighted average exchange rate) in the restoration of infrastructure destroyed by russia, as well as in the construction of new facilities, and modernization of production assets.Of this amount, nearly $1 billion was directed specifically to the urgent restoration of infrastructure facilities destroyed as a result of russian shelling and massive air attacks.First and foremost, this includes the restoration of the Ukrainian energy infrastructure – thermal power plants and electricity grids, which are the primary targets of the enemy.This made it possible to bring part of the capacity of power plants and other critically important energy facilities back into operation, reduce the duration of electricity outages for consumers, and stabilize the situation in the energy system.The S

In an interview with Pryamyi Channel, Metinvest Group Chief Operating Officer Oleksandr Myronenko spoke about the evolution of wartime production and unique front-line solutions, the development of Rinat Akhmetov’s Steel Front initiative, continued support for Ukraine’s defence forces, and efforts to address staff shortages.– How has the Steel Front initiative evolved over four years of war?– Like many other businesses, we began supporting the defence forces in 2022. At that time, everything was fairly simple: a request would come in by phone, and we would try to meet the needs of our troops as quickly as possible as they were deployed to different sectors of the front.Systematic support began with producing steel for body armour and supplying protective gear to the military, because in 2022 there was a shortage of even the most basic personal protective equipment. We also worked closely with local authorities: from blocking roads with heavy machinery available at our production sites
