As of 08:00 a.m., as a result of the natural disaster in Lviv Oblast, 28 settlements were completely without electricity, and 30 partially in:
- Central REM (Peremyshlyansk, Pustomytivsk, Zhydachivsk, Mykolaiv parts);
- Southern REM (Stryya district);
- Carpathian Rem (Sambir district);
- Northern Rem (Radekhivska, Chervonohrad-Sokal district);
- Western REM (Yavorivska district);
- LMEM (Pustomytivska, Zhovkivska district).
In Lvivoblenergo, people are reminded: do not get closer to the place of a broken power line wire at a distance of less than 8 meters, because otherwise you can get a fatal electric shock.
You need to leave the dangerous zone with a “goose step” – bring your feet together, do not separate them from each other and from the ground, and move with small steps.
If you see damaged power lines, report the situation by calling 0-800-30-15-68 (24/7, free of charge) or other call center numbers: 067-333-15-68, 050-460-15-68, 093 -170-15-68, (032) 290-75-68.
You can also leave a message on the “Lvivoblenergo Hotline” page on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lvivoblenergo.hotline
Organize the protection of the place of the broken wire so that no one gets there until the arrival of the Lvivoblenergo emergency team.
In addition, it is possible to report an accident in the Viber and Telegram chatbots: the “Lvivoblenergo” website: https://poweroff.loe.lviv.ua/
In the event that trees or branches fell due to bad weather, people were injured, emergency services should be notified by calling 101, 112 or 103.
