The Ministry of Energy confirmed the 13th complete blackout of the occupied Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant due to the disconnection of a power transmission line, the causes of which are being investigated, and reported that due to enemy attacks, parts of 6 regions are without electricity, UNN writes.
Enemy attacks
"As a result of hostilities and shelling of energy infrastructure facilities, some consumers in Dnipropetrovsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kharkiv, Odesa, Mykolaiv, and Kherson regions temporarily remain without electricity," the statement said.
Energy workers are working in an intensified mode to restore electricity supply to all subscribers as soon as possible. Restoration work continues around the clock.
Zaporizhzhia NPP
As a result of the disconnection of one of the power transmission lines, the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant lost external power supply. The plant switched to power from diesel generators. The causes of the disconnection are being investigated. This is already the 13th complete blackout of the plant since the beginning of the full-scale war.

"No restrictions are expected today," the Ministry of Energy said.
Consumers were urged, if possible, to use electricity sparingly throughout the day. This helps reduce the load on the system.
