## Key Points

- Energy workers restored power to the majority of consumers in Dnipropetrovsk region after a nighttime Russian attack
- Tens of thousands of subscribers remain without power, mostly in Pavlohrad district
- Emergency shutdowns were introduced in Dnipro due to power grid overload
- Invincibility centers in the region have been switched to 24/7 operation

A nighttime Russian military attack on the energy infrastructure of the Dnipropetrovsk region has once again led to widespread blackouts. According to the head of the Dnipropetrovsk Regional Military Administration, Oleksandr Hanzha, via his official Telegram channel and reported by RBC-Ukraine, energy workers have managed to restore electricity to the majority of consumers in the region who were left without power following the strikes. Nevertheless, emergency repair work at the damaged facilities is ongoing, and some subscribers remain without power.

### Where electricity supply has already been restored

Power has returned to the homes of residents in the Dniprovsky, Kamianske, and Pavlohrad districts. In Dnipro, according to the authorities, water supply has also been fully restored. At the same time, the Regional Military Administration notes that tens of thousands of subscribers remain without electricity — according to RBC-Ukraine, more than 60,000, with the largest number of blackouts occurring in the Pavlohrad district. Other media outlets, citing statements from regional leadership, cite larger figures for the city of Dnipro — over 200,000 subscribers, while a number of TV channels estimated the total scale of the blackout immediately after the attack at nearly 100,000 consumers.

### Emergency shutdowns in Dnipro due to grid overload

The key problem in the city has been the overload of the energy system. Despite the restoration of the water supply, severe strain on the grids forced the introduction of emergency power outages in Dnipro. The authorities are appealing to citizens to consume electricity economically in order to reduce the load on the damaged networks and accelerate the full restoration of the resource supply.

### Invincibility centers switch to 24/7 operation

Due to the critical situation in the region, "invincibility centers" have been switched to round-the-clock operation. In the settlements of the Dniprovsky, Kamianske, and Pavlohrad districts, residents can warm up, charge their gadgets, use the internet, and receive necessary assistance. According to volunteers, these centers are equipped with generators and supplies of drinking water, and in certain areas, such as the Chechelivka district, water delivery has been organized.

### Working under threat and bad weather conditions

The authorities expressed gratitude to the energy workers and rescue teams who, despite bad weather and the threat of new strikes, are carrying out restoration work at damaged infrastructure facilities. The situation is complicated by repeated attacks and damage to energy facilities, which is why in certain areas of the city, the return of electricity may take several days. Emergency crews are continuing urgent work to restore the damaged infrastructure.
