Some 210,000 customers in the Chernihiv, Koriukivka and Novhorod-Siverskyi districts, in northern Ukraine, were left without electricity on Wednesday, 28 October, due to a fault at an energy facility, according to the regional distributor Chernihivoblenergo on Facebook, cited by UA.NEWS. The company said the cause had not yet been determined and gave no time for restoration.
For this Thursday, 29 October, the grid operator, Ukrenergo, is applying hourly outages to all categories of consumers, of 1.5 to 2.5 queues, and consumption limits for industry from 06:00 to 23:59, according to its Telegram channel cited by UA.NEWS. It attributes this to the consequences of massive Russian attacks on energy infrastructure.
According to UA.NEWS, the city of Konotop, in the Sumy region, has been without electricity for five days following Russian attacks, and diesel for generators could run out this Thursday; the city needs at least 40 tonnes to keep its critical infrastructure running.
Story under review: all these data come from a single outlet, UA.NEWS, and we have not been able to open the Chernihivoblenergo or Ukrenergo posts directly. We have not seen the Konotop diesel figure in an official source.
This story stands on its own facts. The Post Apocalyptic does not link it to other incidents unless the sources demonstrate a connection.
