Blackouts hit Kyiv and several other Ukrainian regions on Tuesday night due to network overload and lingering damage from earlier Russian strikes, according to officials.
Water pressure was also disrupted in parts of the capital. The Kyiv City State Administration wrote on Telegram that the overload had caused a failure at one of the city’s energy facilities.
Electricity was cut in three central districts on the western bank of the Dnipro River, while the Kyiv metro had to switch to backup power to remain operational.
Emergency teams later restored power to most affected areas, although some outages persisted. Authorities said water pressure was expected to return to normal within two to three hours.
Ukrenergo, Ukraine’s state grid operator, reported that residual damage from Russian attacks on the power system had led to outages across northern, central, and southeastern regions.
“The consequences of Russian strikes on energy facilities are still being resolved in all affected areas,” Ukrenergo said on Telegram.
In recent weeks, Russian forces have intensified their assaults on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, with a wave of strikes last week leaving more than a million homes and businesses temporarily without power nationwide.
