Power outages caused by Russian attacks were reported in Kyiv and seven regions
On the night of and in the morning of October 14, Russian troops carried out a massive missile attack on energy facilities in several regions of Ukraine. As a result of the strikes and previous shelling, some consumers were left without power.
“As a result of this, as well as shelling of energy infrastructure over the past 24 hours, as of this morning, consumers in Kyiv and the Kharkiv, Chernihiv, Sumy, Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, Khmelnytskyi, and Zaporizhzhia regions are without power,” the company stated.
Utility workers have already begun emergency repair work in those areas where the security situation permits.
At the same time, due to equipment damage resulting from previous Russian attacks, it has become necessary to limit the load on the power grid.
According to Ukrenergo, in some regions, power restriction schedules for industrial consumers and hourly power outages for all categories of consumers will be enforced until the end of the day on October 14.
Restrictions for the general public will include up to two rounds of hourly power outages.
Ukrenergo emphasized that the situation in the power grid may change due to Russian attacks on energy infrastructure.
Therefore, consumers are advised to monitor announcements on the official websites and social media pages of their distribution system operators to stay informed about the latest outage schedules.
This was reported by NEC “Ukrenergo.”
