KYIV, July 2 – Since July 1, Ukraine has significantly increased the import of natural gas into the country, which made it possible to increase the volume of its injection into underground gas storage (UGS) facilities, Head of Gas Transmission System Operator of Ukraine LLC (OGTSU) Serhiy Makogon has said on his Facebook page.

"Since the beginning of July, gas imports to Ukraine have significantly increased. Now it amounts to 15.8 million cubic meters per day. 91% comes from Hungary, 7% from Slovakia, and 2% from Poland. Additional receipts will allow increasing gas injection into UGS facilities to ensure the passage of the next heating season," he wrote.
