The situation with electricity in the capital remains difficult. The emergency power outages continue, and Kyiv residents will live in such realities all winter, said Deputy Head of Kyiv City State Administration Petro Panteleev, according to Kyiv TV channel.
"We remember the last shelling, it was difficult to restore, but the round-the-clock work of power engineers provided us with the situation we are in now. Relevant works continue," Panteleev said.
He also added that weekends are specific days, the demand is reduced, and there is less consumption than on weekdays.
"The situation is not easy, but we see it on weekdays, restrictions continue, blackouts continue, they are not planned, but rather emergency. We will live in such realities all winter, and we must understand this. We are trying our best to make the residents comfortable, but everything depends not on the power engineers alone," said the Deputy Head of the Kyiv City State Administration.
On 27 December, emergency power cuts will remain in force in Kyiv and the region. Previous schedules are not valid.
