Russian overnight strikes on Dnipropetrovshchyna energy infrastructure leave nearly 100,000 people without power

Nearly 100,000 residents of Dnipropetrovsk Oblast were left without electricity following new enemy strikes on the region's energy infrastructure. This was announced by Oleksandr Hanzha, head of the Dnipropetrovsk Oblast Military Administration.

Status of recovery after previous attacks

As noted by the OVA head, following the previous enemy shelling, energy workers have already managed to restore power to almost all consumers in Dnipro, Kamianske, and Pavlohrad districts. Water supply has been fully restored in the city of Dnipro. Currently, only a few thousand subscribers who were previously de-energised remain to be connected.

Consequences of overnight shelling

However, the situation worsened overnight. According to Oleksandr Hanzha, the enemy continued to attack the oblast's energy facilities, causing repeated outages.

«Проте ніч була важкою. Ворог продовжував бити по енергетиці області. Нові удари спричинили повторні знеструмлення. Зараз через нічні атаки без світла залишаються майже 100 тисяч споживачів у Дніпровському, Павлоградському та Самарівському районах» (However, the night was difficult. The enemy continued to strike the oblast's energy sector. New strikes caused repeated power outages. Currently, due to overnight attacks, nearly 100,000 consumers in Dnipro, Pavlohrad, and Samarske districts remain without power), — emphasised the OVA head.

Network restoration work

Active restoration work is underway at the sites of the incidents. Currently, over 70 emergency crews are deployed to localise accidents and restore electricity supply, working to return power to citizens' homes as quickly as possible.
