  "account": "Over the weekend, the distribution system operator Zaporizhiaoblenergo suffered 30 damage incidents at its facilities, according to its head Andriy Stasevskyy. The incidents occurred over Saturday and Sunday. Despite ongoing shelling, power was ultimately restored to more than 17,000 consumers across 28 settlements in the Orikhiv and Novomykolaivka districts, as well as in the regional center of Zaporizhia, the company reported on Facebook.\n\nStasevskyy detailed that a single energy facility in Zaporizhia was struck by three successive drone attacks overnight, yet power engineers were able to restore supply to consumers within an hour. Additionally, the operator managed to restore power to 1,062 households in the regional center that had been disconnected due to another enemy shelling attack on Sunday.\n\nEarlier in July, Zaporizhiaoblenergo had to repair a 500-meter stretch of a high-voltage overhead power line that was severed by a Russian strike across the Dnipro River. The remnants of the line fell into the water, 180-200 meters from the riverbank on both sides, leaving over 3,000 households without power.",
