(MENAFN- UkrinForm) According to Ukrinform, this was reported by NPC“Ukrenergo” on Facebook.

“The enemy continues to attack civilian energy infrastructure. As a result of Russian drone and artillery strikes, as of this morning, consumers in the Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhia, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Zhytomyr regions are without power,” the statement reads.

It is noted that restoration work has begun wherever the security situation allows.

As of 9:30 a.m. on Tuesday, electricity consumption was 1.3% lower than the previous day. Ukrenergo attributes the downward trend in consumption to clear weather across most of Ukraine and a drop in air temperature in most regions.
