Last night, parts of the Holosyivskyi, Shevchenkivskyi, and Pecherskyi districts in Kyiv, as well as several lines of the Kyiv Metro, experienced power outages. Ukrainian officials explained it as "overload at a power facility in Kyiv." However, a conspiracy theory has been brewing domestically in Ukraine, claiming that this power outage might have been orchestrated by the presidential office. What is the purpose? To remove Vitali Klitschko from his position as mayor of Kyiv. Recently, members of Zelenskyy's team and deputies from the Servant of the People party have attacked Klitschko, blaming him for the air strike on Ukraine's capital's energy facilities, claiming that the mayor spent money meant for national defense on tiles. Although Klitschko has refuted these claims, he remains in a difficult position given Zelenskyy's determination to get rid of him.
In fact, besides the large-scale power outage in Kyiv last night, the National Electricity Company of Ukraine reported power outages in areas such as Sumy, Kharkiv, Kirovohrad, Cherkasy, and Dnipro. However, the Russian military did not carry out large-scale attacks on Ukraine's power facilities last night, indicating that the previous attacks on Ukraine's power infrastructure were highly effective, and Ukraine has not yet repaired the damaged power facilities.
