The official address of the company\u2019s production site is 1 Ukrainska Street.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1499\" data-end=\"1754\">Footage circulating following the attack shows heavy smoke in the area around the industrial buildings. Initial reports suggest a rocket-powered UAV struck the area, although the type of aircraft, the exact location of the strike and the nature of the damage are yet to be officially confirmed.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1756\" data-end=\"2051\">Russia has today carried out a large-scale attack on Ukraine using jet-powered drones. The Air Force reported that during the night-time attack on 3 September, the enemy launched <strong data-start=\"1903\" data-end=\"1922\">163 attack UAVs<\/strong>, with around half of the \u00abShaheds\u00bb being jet-powered.

Coca-Cola itself refers to it as <strong data-start=\"2171\" data-end=\"2255\">one of the company\u2019s largest, most modern and most powerful plants in Europe<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2296\" data-end=\"2573\">According to the latest figures from Coca-Cola, the following people are working at the production site <strong data-start=\"2364\" data-end=\"2376\">11 lines<\/strong>, which produce goods in PET bottles, glass bottles and metal cans. The company\u2019s product range includes carbonated drinks, water, juices, energy drinks and ready-to-drink tea.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2575\" data-end=\"2740\">Among our products <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/economics\/rf-atakuvala-obiekt-coca-cola-ukraina\/\">Coca-Cola<\/a> on the Ukrainian market \u2014 <strong data-start=\"2625\" data-end=\"2701\">Coca-Cola, Coca-Cola Zero, Fanta, Sprite, Schweppes, Bonaqua and Fuze Tea<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2742\" data-end=\"2925\">UkraineInvest previously reported that the company produces around <strong data-start=\"2808\" data-end=\"2842\">40 types of soft drinks<\/strong>, and it employs over 1,500 people.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"1y1s60u\" data-start=\"2927\" data-end=\"2958\">Could there be any disruptions to the supply of drinks?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2960\" data-end=\"3269\">If, as a result of the attack, the plant is forced to significantly reduce or temporarily halt production, this could affect the supply of some Coca-Cola products in Ukraine. However, <strong data-start=\"3133\" data-end=\"3178\">It is too early to talk about a shortage of drinks at the moment<\/strong> \u2014 The company has not announced any shutdowns of production lines or given any timeframe for their possible resumption.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3271\" data-end=\"3654\">A similar situation had already arisen at the start of the full-scale invasion. In February 2022, Coca-Cola halted production in Velyka Dymerka, and the plant was subsequently hit by Russian shelling and found itself in occupied territory. During the shutdown, the company partially made up for the shortfall in Ukrainian production by importing products from Poland and the Czech Republic.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3656\" data-end=\"3828\">Production was then successfully resumed as early as May 2022 \u2014 initially for Coca-Cola, Fanta and Sprite, and subsequently for the plant\u2019s other production lines.<\/p>\n<h2 data-section-id=\"zax8oz\" data-start=\"3830\" data-end=\"3872\">The plant has already been targeted by Russian strikes<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"3874\" data-end=\"4079\">This is not the first Russian attack on the plant in Velyka Dymerka. In March 2022, the plant came under fire, resulting in damage to the combined heat and power plant.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4081\" data-end=\"4248\">The business was subsequently restored. Therefore, the key issue following the current attack will be the condition of <strong data-start=\"4167\" data-end=\"4240\">production lines, warehouses and energy infrastructure<\/strong> factory.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"4250\" data-end=\"4346\">Official figures from Coca-Cola, the Kyiv Regional State Administration and the State Emergency Service regarding the extent of today\u2019s
