At the peak of the heat, widespread power outages are affecting several areas in Tel Aviv-Yafo this morning, Wednesday. According to a notice sent to residents, it is a regional malfunction, and the expected time for the restoration of power supply is estimated only for the afternoon. Power outages in the city were also recorded last Saturday.

A Tel Aviv resident who spoke with N12 was furious: "I am pregnant, how is this happening at the peak of summer? This is truly life-threatening. It is unacceptable that the estimated time for fixing the malfunction is so long."

In the Israel Electric Corporation's message, they apologized for the inconvenience: "Our teams are working in the field to fix the regional malfunction as soon as possible."

The Israel Electric Corporation stated: "A malfunction at a substation led to a power outage in several areas in Tel Aviv. Reinforced teams of the Israel Electric Corporation are on-site and working to fix and quickly restore power supply to everyone. Expected time for a return to routine is about an hour."
