Energy companies DTEK and the state operator Ukrenergo have announced extended planned power cuts for Kyiv and Kyiv region on October 7. The report says this is the second day of scheduled disconnections as the regional energy balance has sharply worsened; centralized supply may be absent for several hours according to the updated timetables.

Authorities say the measures respond to a significant deficit in available generation and to extensive damage to energy equipment caused by recent Russian missile and drone attacks. Repair brigades are working on damaged sites; companies describe the disconnections as temporary steps to speed repairs and to test system operation.

Consumers are asked to monitor official sources for changes: the Kyiv Digital app and chat-bot, the YASNO website and YASNO Mobile app, and DTEK/Ukrenergo channels carry updated schedules and notices.
