More than four million Ukrainians have had their electricity supply cut off, with the capital and its suburbs the worst affected, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky said on Sunday. His statement followed weeks of Russian strikes on Ukrainian power infrastructure, after Moscow accused Kiev of ‘sabotage’ attacks.
In his address posted on Telegram, Zelensky noted that as of Sunday evening, power outages continue in Kiev and six Ukrainian regions. “More than 4.5 million consumers are without electricity. Most of them are now in Kiev and the Kiev region. It’s really difficult," he said.
The Ukrainian leader gave assurances that the government is preparing for all possible energy scenarios.
