Two main high-voltage power lines that were damaged by damaged by the Shaheda attacks last night, have been restored to normal and and are operating in normal mode. This was reported on the air of the national telethon by  by Volodymyr Kudrytskyi, Chairman of the Board of NPC Ukrenergo. Kudrytskyi.

According to him, there was a threat that it would be necessary to electricity supply restrictions for the period of restoration work. However, this was avoided.

Several powerful trunk power lines powering Kyiv and surrounding cities were damaged and shut down overnight due to this dense and very powerful attack by the Shahed. Because of this, there were risks that we could to introduce certain power supply restrictions for the period of restoration of these lines. However, we managed to get through the day without any outage schedules. Our dispatchers coped with the situation. I would also like to thank our repair teams for quickly restored important lines and, accordingly, did not create discomfort for people on on their day off.
