The supply of power is being restored in the Shostka hromada in Sumy Oblast after heavy Russian strikes: some homes now have a constant electricity supply, while others are receiving power according to temporary rolling blackout schedules. [A hromada is an administrative unit designating a village, several villages, or a town, and their adjacent territories – ed.]
