Russian drones attacked the city overnight, cutting electricity to nearly 60,000 households, the local branch of DTEK, the country’s biggest private energy company, said on its website Thursday. Engineers managed to restore power to more than 11,000 customers, with recovery work continuing, according to the statement.
