A UAV attack hits the Balaia Tsarkov substation.
A jet-powered UAV hit the 330-kilowatt Blia Tsarkovskaya substation near Tomilovka in the evening. The hit was aimed at an AT-3 automatic transformer, causing oil to burn and a powerful flash.
It is a central 330/110/10 kV hub that supplies electricity to Belya Tserkov. Damage to the 200 MVA unit removes a central transmission channel from the network, forcing load redistribution on the remaining connections.
