Details: The power supply situation in Kherson is difficult following the overnight Russian attack, Prokudin said. The city currently remains without electricity due to damage to a critical infrastructure facility.

"Power engineers are dealing with the damage caused by the strike. We will do everything possible to fully resume power supply within a few days," Prokudin wrote on Telegram.

He urged Kherson residents not to overload the network and not to switch on high-consumption appliances immediately once power returns.

Background: Constant Russian strikes on energy infrastructure in Kherson Oblast were previously officially classified as posing a risk of an emergency situation, meaning any worsening of the current state could endanger human welfare. The same status has also been applied to the state of the heating supply in Kherson due to the risk of disruptions during the heating season.
