As of March 20, consumers in Dnipropetrovsk, Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, and Donetsk regions were left without electricity due to Russian strikes.
This was reported by NPC Ukrenergo.
It is noted that drone and artillery attacks have damaged energy infrastructure, and emergency crews are already carrying out restoration work where security conditions allow.
Due to the consequences of previous massive strikes, capacity limitation schedules are in place in industry, and hourly outages are planned for other consumers in the evening hours.
Electricity consumption as of 9:30 a.m. Friday is 2.3% lower than the previous day, due to clear weather across most of the country.
Ukrenergo calls on Ukrainians to save electricity: postpone energy-intensive processes for the day (11:00–15:00) and not turn on several powerful appliances at the same time in the evening until 22:00.
As a reminder, on the night of Friday, March 20, Russian occupation forces attacked the Zaporizhia region. The occupiers struck civilian infrastructure. A woman was killed and two more people were injured as a result of the shelling.
As reported, on March 20, Russian occupation forces attacked a port in the Odessa region with drones. The strike damaged two civilian ships under the flags of Palau and Barbados, which were moored at the piers and loaded with grain.
By the way, on the night of Friday, March 20, Russia attacked Ukraine with 156 drones.
