In the Kyiv region, air defense shot down 6 missiles, but there is a hit in a thermal power plant, Deputy Head of the President’s Office Kyrylo Tymoshenko wrote on a telegram channel.
“Under the gun are power facilities from Lviv to Zaporozhye, Kiev region, Khmelnytsky, Dnipro and Vinnytsia, Frankivsk, Sumy, Kharkiv, Zhytormyr, Kirovohrad regions, in general, the entire south. This may affect the stability of the energy supply, so you need to be prepared for the consequences of such shelling, up to rolling blackouts,” he wrote.

Thanks to our rescuers and doctors who are now saving people’s lives in the epicenters of shelling. Thanks to our power engineers who are resuming the power supply of cities under shelling” he wrote.
Shmyhal also said that the air defense managed to shoot down more than 40 missiles out of 70.
The Telegram app in Ukraine is malfunctioning, including in Europe, due to platform overload.
“Analyzing sensors on the network, there is a complication of communication through the Telegram application. This is due to the overload of the Telegram digital platform itself. The remaining numbers of the platform work without overload,” the deputy head of the parliamentary committee on digital transformation said in his Telegram channel on Monday Oleksandr Fediyenko (Servant of the People faction).
He advises for a while to switch to communication through other instant messengers and applications.
Messages about failures in the work of Telegram appeared in the social networks of Ukrainians starting from Sunday.
