Residents of Rabochaya Street reported that on Sunday, January 19, several houses were left without electricity due to an emergency situation, as conveyed by "Vidomo" referencing the Telegram channel HDnepr.

"KP 'Dneprovodokanal' was searching for another pipe burst and accidentally cut the power supply cable, resulting in a significant portion of Rabochaya Street being left in the dark," the statement reads.

The number of affected houses has not been disclosed; however, it is worth noting that there are many high-rise buildings in this area that lack gas, making electricity essential even for cooking.
