Ukraine, Kyiv: Two main high-voltage transmission lines, damaged during the Russian night attack on 24-25 November, have already resumed operation without threat of power outages.

The lines were damaged when Russia launched an attack on Ukraine on the night of 24-25 November. Volodymyr Kudrytskyi, chairman of the board of the Ukrenergo National Power Company, reported the event and said at first: “Several powerful power transmission lines that supply Kyiv and the surrounding cities were damaged and turned off during the night due to this dense and very powerful Shahed attack”. He added that, due to this, certain power supply restrictions could be introduced while these lines were being repaired.

In the end, Ukrenergo managed to get through the day without any shutdown schedules, with Kudrytskyi emphasising that dispatchers had handled the situation, and repair crews had quickly restored important lines and did not cause discomfort to people on their day off.
