The report does not say what kind of infrastructure was hit, whether anyone was injured, or how long restoring electricity might take. These details have not yet been clarified.
Energy facilities in Ukraine have repeatedly been targeted by Russian attacks during the full-scale war, and such strikes can interrupt the power supply to residents.
