In Vinnytsia, on October 30, part of the city's transport temporarily stopped due to a massive missile-drone strike from Russia and power supply interruptions. Due to a sharp drop in voltage, trams and trolleybuses could not operate in several areas of the city. This is reported by Suspilne.
Which Vinnytsia routes were affected on October 30
According to the city council, the voltage disappeared on specific routes of electric transport in the areas of Khmelnytskyi highway, Keletska street, the Urzhaï market, as well as on Soborna, Pyrohov, and Kotsiubynskyi streets.
