Details: Electrical engineers are rapidly switching critical infrastructure to backup power.
A total of 82,000 subscribers are impacted; they were previously disconnected on 26 March due to shelling.
As soon as the Armed Forces of Ukraine confirm that it is safe to carry out the recovery work, the engineers will be able to restore electricity.
At least 7 brigades of electrical engineers will be involved in repairing the damage. The authorities assure residents that these specialists will do everything possible to restore electricity quickly.
Also, today during the day residents in the right-bank suburbs of Kyiv may experience low water pressure. Some pumping stations of "Kyivvodokanal" (the water provider) have had their electricity cut off. The water supply to the capital is not cut off.
