In Dnipro, residents of houses where the electricity was not turned off during the general blackouts attacked power workers. PJSC "Energy Enterprise "Central Energy Company" saidthe report says that there were several cases.

According to the company, the incidents occurred on Akademika Yangel Street. Previously, the houses at this address were not disconnected from the electricity supply because they were on a line with critical infrastructure. Currently, the power outages are being carried out manually.
