Recall that a state of heightened readiness was introduced in the Murmansk Region due to power outages. Such a decision was made at a meeting of the operational headquarters. In the streets of Murmansk, lighting was temporarily turned off.

The press service of Rosseti Severo-Zapad (North-West Electric Grids) reported that the cause of the outage was a technological failure on an overhead power line. Later it became known that five supports collapsed. Trolleybuses in Murmansk changed their routes.

The prosecutor«s office of the Murmansk Region has already launched an investigation due to mass power outages. A criminal case has been initiated, and in the Leninsky district, rotational blackouts were introduced.

Murmansk residents were informed where they can go to warm up and charge electronic devices. And city entrepreneurs are ready to provide food from their main menu at a discount. Also, interactive maps with useful addresses were prepared for citizens.

The consequences of the accident continue to be addressed; Rosseti Severo-Zapad brought additional snowmobiles and all-terrain vehicles to the emergency site, and the first supports have already been delivered to the Polar Region from Karelia. Meanwhile, the region is experiencing communication disruptions. Major city hotels have already joined in to help residents: they can charge devices and eat at a discount there.
