Major power outage hits EU country



Large parts of the Czech Republic, including the capital Prague, were hit by a significant power outage on Friday. Officials attributed the incident to a technical failure rather than a cyberattack.

The blackout began around noon local time, causing the entire Prague metro system to shut down temporarily. The city’s transport authority reported that services on the A and C lines had resumed within 15 minutes, while the B line was operational again after around 30 minutes.

Tram services on the right bank of the Vltava River were also halted, while those on the left bank continued to operate. Additionally, some train services near Prague and in other regions experienced disruptions.
