In brief
Some consumers in eight Ukrainian regions lost electricity following Russian attacks, the Energy Ministry said. Equipment damage and falling grid voltage forced emergency cuts in Kharkiv region.
Russian attacks left some electricity consumers without power across eight Ukrainian regions, RBC-Ukraine reported, citing a briefing by First Deputy Energy Minister Artem Nekrasov. The morning assessment listed outages in Dnipropetrovsk, Zhytomyr, Zaporizhzhia, Kyiv, Rivne, Kharkiv, Odesa and Chernihiv regions.
The report described the situation as most difficult in Kyiv, Dnipropetrovsk and Odesa regions. It did not specify how many consumers were without electricity in each of the eight regions.
In Kharkiv region, damaged equipment and reduced voltage in the high-voltage network prompted emergency power cuts. Predictable outage schedules are expected to resume once the energy system stabilises; RBC-Ukraine did not give a timeframe.
Repair crews are working around the clock, with prolonged air raid alerts and the threat of further strikes hampering their work. Scheduled hourly outages remain in place across most regions, alongside power restrictions for industry. The report warned that continued attacks could cause electricity supplies to change several times within an hour.
