Kyiv City Military Administration reports on Telegram.

"Thanks to the titanic work of energy workers and all municipal services, Kyiv residents were able to welcome New Year with light, without power outages. But due to the damage to the power system during the last air attack on Kyiv and due to the increase in electricity consumption after holidays, the city is forced to return to shutdowns," Serhiy Popko, head of Kyiv City Military Administration said.

Capital’s mayor, Vitaliy Klitschko, emphasized that emergency power outage schedules are in effect in the city.

DTEK website also reports: "Emergency blackouts in Kyiv. They were applied because the energy infrastructure of the capital was damaged as a result of the night attack."

Currently, energy workers are working in intensified mode to restore the stable operation of the power grid.

In addition, water and heat are supplied as usual.
