Households in south-west Berlin face days without electricity after high-voltage power lines were damaged by a fire
Berlin: Many households and businesses in south-west Berlin face days without electricity after high-voltage power lines were damaged by a fire, which city authorities said on Sunday was a result of a politically motivated attack by “left-wing extremists.”
The fire broke out on Saturday morning on a cable bridge over the Teltow Canal, near the Lichterfelde power plant, according to local authorities. Initially, over 45,000 households and 2,200 businesses in four districts were without electricity. Heating and internet services were also affected.
