Quote: "Left bank: emergency outages are ongoing. We thank residents of the Darnytskyi, Dniprovskyi and Desnianskyi districts for their patience and support. We are doing everything possible to return you to scheduled power outages as soon as possible."

Details: Nevertheless, the company noted that scheduled power outages are in force on Kyiv's right bank.

Background:

• On the morning of 30 December, residents of the capital began receiving notifications that emergency power outages had been introduced in Kyiv.
• On the night of 26-27 December, a nationwide air-raid warning was issued across Ukraine.
• Earlier reports said that a significant number of consumers in Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast had been left without electricity as a result of another Russian attack.
• As of the morning of 28 December, DTEK energy workers had restored power supply to around one million consumers in Kyiv and Kyiv Oblast.
• In the meantime, several attempts were made to switch Kyiv's left bank from emergency outages to scheduled ones, but as of 29 December, this had not been possible.
