Ukraine reports mass power outages due to 'technical malfunction'

Ukraine's power grid experienced mass outages on Saturday after a "technical malfunction" caused electrical lines between Moldova, Romania, and Ukraine to fail, Ukraine's energy minister said.

"Today at 10:42 a.m. (0842 GMT), a technical malfunction occurred, causing a simultaneous shutdown of the 400 kilovolt line between the power grids of Romania and Moldova and the 750 kilovolt line between western and central Ukraine," Denys Shmygal said on Telegram.
