An enemy strike has damaged an energy facility in a neighboring oblast, leaving more than 100,000 consumers without electricity across the Chernihiv, Novhorod-Siverskyi, Nizhyn, and Koriukivka districts of Chernihiv Oblast. Energy workers are ready to begin restoration work, but the start of repairs depends on the security situation at the site. No timeline for restoring power supply has been established at this time. Residents of the affected districts are advised to prepare for a prolonged outage and to monitor official announcements from the electricity supply company.
