The headquarters' main task is to warn and respond to risks so that networks can operate even during long power outages. To this end, clear rules of interaction between telecommunications operators and authorities will be created.
The headquarters will also analyze the situation and submit recommendations directly to the Cabinet of Ministers.
The headquarters included representatives of mobile operators - Kyivstar, Vodafone Ukraine and lifecell, the Deputy Minister of Energy and the Head of the National Energy Regulatory Commission (NERC), as well as representatives of the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Security Service of Ukraine, the National Police, the State Emergency Service and the State Emergency Service.
The heads of the OVA and the chairman of the National Communications Commission (NCEC) are also involved in the work.
"Due to the war, the number of calls is increasing, so the Government is creating a Communications Coordination Headquarters. Our goal is to synchronize the state, energy, military, and mobile operators to ensure uninterrupted communications for every Ukrainian under any circumstances," noted First Deputy Prime Minister - Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov, who will head the headquarters.
Recall that the authorities are tightening requirements for mobile operators regarding network stability . According to EP sources, operators need to purchase and install about 15,000 generators.
