Emergency blackouts implemented in Kherson Oblast following Russian strike
Russian strikes on critical infrastructure in southern Ukraine have led to emergency blackouts in Kherson Oblast, head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration, Oleksandr Prokudin, reported on April 10.
Engineers are currently conducting emergency repairs to damaged equipment and some households have already been reconnected to the grid, he said.
Prokudin urged Kherson Oblast residents not to switch on all their electrical devices simultaneously as power returns.
Ukrenergo confirmed that Kherson and Mykolaiv oblasts were experiencing power outages as of 11:30 a.m, due to a Russian missile strike on an energy infrastructure facility.
Earlier, a Russian missile strike hit Odesa Oblast, damaging the power grid in the region.
The military war may be swinging in our favor, but the information war continues.
Just as an army needs soldiers, so does a free society need its journalists to ensure that people have access to honest, trustworthy voices to understand the world around them.
For the past five years, The New Voice of Ukraine has been working tirelessly to push back against Russian narratives and defend democracy. But we cannot do it alone.
