Scheduled power cuts will return to parts of Ukraine from 3 p.m. until the end of Tuesday, Oct. 6, following damage caused by Russian attacks on energy infrastructure, according to national grid operator Ukrenergo. The hourly outage schedules will cover households and industrial facilities, with separate limits on electricity use for the latter.
Russian attacks have caused new power disruptions in the Kharkiv, Sumy, Zaporizhzhia, and Dnipropetrovsk regions, with emergency repair work underway. The restrictions follow a renewed Russian campaign against Ukraine’s power system ahead of the heating season.
