Two 150 KV overhead power lines were turned off in Dnipropetrovsk Oblast for technical reasons, affecting train movement. This happened following a Russian attack on the oblast, when the aftermath had been dealt with.

Details: As previously stated, due to technical issues that arose during the cleanup of the effects of the shelling, the power generation unit was left without power: several substations of Ukrenergo state energy company with a voltage of 330 kV were de-energized.
A unit of a local thermal power plant has shut down, leaving household consumers without power.
The railway was also de-energized, resulting in temporary train traffic violations.
At the same time, Kryvyi Rih’s electricity supply was mostly restored.
However, Oleksandr Vilkul, the head of Kryvyi Rih’s Defence Council, has stated that, despite the restoration of energy supply, emergency shutdowns may still happen.
Background: On 3 February, energy workers in Kryvyi Rih implemented emergency outage schedules based on an algorithm used during blackouts.
