Developing story Certainty medium

Emergency electricity cuts are in effect this Sunday, November 8, in several regions of Ukraine on the orders of Ukrenergo, the state transmission system operator, according to the press service of energy company DTEK as reported by Ukrainska Pravda. The outlet's headline says they affect Kyiv and other regions.

Ukrenergo said these cuts are also being applied in the Kharkiv, Sumy and Poltava regions, according to the same source. Scheduled outage timetables do not apply during emergency cuts, DTEK said.

The measure comes hours after, on the morning of the same Sunday, more than 600,000 consumers in the Dnipropetrovsk region lost electricity following Russian attacks on the energy system, according to Ukrainska Pravda.

Developing story: the information comes from a single outlet citing DTEK. It remains to open Ukrenergo's statement and to learn the full list of regions, the number of customers affected and the duration of the cuts.

This story stands on its own facts. The Post Apocalyptic does not link it to other incidents unless the sources demonstrate a connection.
