Many areas in Northern Euboea in darkness due to bad weather

Intense bad weather has struck Northern Euboea, causing widespread damage to the electricity network and leaving numerous communities in the Municipality of Mandoudi-Limni-Agia Anna without power. A particularly severe incident occurred near a paper mill, where large eucalyptus trees fell onto transmission lines. Approximately 300 meters of the network were completely destroyed and lay on the ground, presenting significant challenges for restoring electricity supply. Areas currently without power include Rovies and the villages of Palaiochori, Damia, Kalamari, and Drymonas. Crews from the Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator (HEDNO) have been working diligently since the early morning hours to repair the damage and restore power to all affected regions. These restoration efforts are proceeding under difficult weather conditions, with the primary goal of completing repairs and safely reconnecting consumers to the grid as quickly as possible.
