Power was restored to over 800,000 residents in Kyiv on Saturday a day after major attacks by Russia on the Ukrainian power grid caused blackouts across much of the country.
Ukraine’s largest private energy company, DTEK, said Saturday that the main work to restore the power supply had been completed, but that some localised outages were still affecting the Ukrainian capital following Friday’s massive Russian attacks.
Russian drone and missile strikes wounded at least 20 people in Kyiv, damaged residential buildings and caused blackouts across swaths of Ukraine early Friday.
Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko described the attack as one of the largest concentrated strikes against Ukraine’s energy infrastructure.
Russia’s Defence Ministry on Friday said the strikes had targeted energy facilities supplying Ukraine’s military. It did not give details of those facilities, but said Russian forces used Kinzhal hypersonic missiles and strike drones against them.
