Quote: "Forty per cent of the capital's consumers are without electricity after the missile attack. Due to the necessary safety measures taken by the power engineers during the air strike. Now the power engineers are working to restore the electricity supply," the Head of Kyiv City Council said.

Klitschko added that the heat and water supply is provided as usual, except for the houses with boilers dependent on electricity and that have no energy supply.
