๐ Blackout Sparks The uprising in Kiev as residents of Sadar take to the streets and block roads Ukrainians take to the streets and block roads as Kiev faces a prolonged electricity crisis. Some districts were without power for four to five days, with power coming back on for only a short time - sometimes just 15 minutes. Power restoration schedules are documented. Electricity generation at Kiev's thermal power plants has nearly collapsed, while repeated Russian strikes prevent repairs and restoration. "This is a complete disaster," is how the Ukrainian media describes the situation. #Kiev #Blackout #EnergyCrisis #Protests.
