Sprawling blackouts in Kiev after Russian strike – mayor (VIDEOS)

The Ukrainian capital has been hit by a “massive attack,” Vitaly Klitschko has claimed, as drones reportedly targeted a key power plant

The recent wave of Russian strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure has caused a large-scale blackout in Kiev, local media and officials have reported. Russia’s Ministry of Defense has yet to comment.

In the early hours of Friday, Kiev Mayor Vitaly Klitschko claimed that the Ukrainian capital came under a “massive attack”, adding that the left bank of Kiev was “currently without power supply” and that there were also problems with water distribution. He said nine people had been injured, with five of them taken to the hospital. “The situation is difficult,” he said.

Klitschko also reported several fires in the city, urging citizens to “stay in shelters,” adding that energy workers are working to restore supply.

According to Ukrainian media outlets, several Russian drones targeted Kiev’s Thermal Power Plant No. 6, one of the city’s key electricity suppliers. The reported strike caused widespread outages, with some local channels also claiming that parts of the right bank had lost power.
