In Kherson, Russians hit an energy infrastructure facility at night, and in the morning power engineers used backup lines, and power supply in the city has been fully restored, but emergency work continues.
This was reported by Roman Mrochko, head of the Kherson RMA, in Telegram, Ukrinform reports.
“Last night, the whole of Kherson experienced power outages,” the message says.
It is noted that during the night shelling, Russian troops hit an energy infrastructure facility. Electricity was cut off in some places for several minutes. Part of the Central and Dniprovsky districts of the city was without power until 5 o’clock. Due to the threat of repeated attacks, specialists could not start repairing the accident at night.
However, according to Mrochko, in the morning, the power company switched on backup lines. The power supply in the city has now been fully restored, but emergency repairs are ongoing.
Residents are urged to consume electricity sparingly and use electrical appliances only when absolutely necessary to keep the city’s power system in working order until the damaged equipment is fully repaired.
