Details: The ministry said a power generation unit had been left without power due to technical issues that arose when dealing with the aftermath of the attack: several 330-kV substations of the Ukrenergo state energy company were de-energised.
A unit of a local thermal power plant shut down, leaving household consumers without power.
The railway was also left without power, resulting in temporary disruptions in rail services.
