Two districts in Kyiv were left without power on July 14 due to a technical malfunction, Ukraine’s private energy company DTEK reported.
DTEK stated that a malfunction caused temporary power outages in parts of the Podilskyi and Obolonskyi districts.
The energy company reassured customers that utility workers are repairing the damage and power will be restored within the hour.
The Ministry of Energy reported that Russian strikes have caused temporary blackouts in Dnipropetrovsk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhya, Odesa, Sumy, Kharkiv, and Chernihiv Oblasts. Additionally, severe weather has cut power to 72 settlements across Ternopil, Chernihiv, and Kyiv Oblasts.
No scheduled blackouts are planned for July 14, though residents are advised to shift energy-intensive consumption to the off-peak hours between 11:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m.
DTEK reported on June 2 that Russia’s mass airstrike on Kyiv had left parts of the city without power.
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.
