Emergency power outages begin across Ukraine

Emergency power outages have been introduced in certain regions of Ukraine on 9 October due to a difficult situation in the power grid following recent Russian attacks.

Details: In regions where emergency outages have been introduced, the previously published hourly power cut schedules are temporarily suspended.

Power engineers are working to restore a stable electricity supply. The emergency outages will be lifted once the situation in the power grid stabilises.

Ukrenergo has urged people to monitor updates from their local power distribution companies (oblenergos), as the situation may change. Consumers who currently still have electricity are asked to use it sparingly.

Background: Earlier, it was reported that emergency power outages had been implemented on the right bank of Kyiv and in two districts of Kyiv Oblast.
