Following Russia's massive attack on the night of August 20, 40,000 homes in Kyiv remain without power, according to the DTEK energy company.
Today, as a result of a massive Russian attack, part of Kyiv was left without power.
Power company workers managed to restore power to 50,000 households using backup systems. Another 40,000 homes are currently without electricity.
"As soon as the military and rescue workers give the go-ahead, power company workers will begin repairing the damaged equipment," DTEK adds.
