New Clarifications from “Electricity” Regarding Delays in Restoring Power to States

Sudan Electricity Company stated that the delay in restoring power is due to repeated bombing attacks that targeted the network, resulting in the loss of many alternative lines necessary for restoration.

The electricity company confirmed in a statement that repairing the faults now requires addressing issues at several different locations to ensure the return of power.

It expressed gratitude and appreciation to the citizens for their patience and endurance regarding the power outages and called for caution against misleading information circulating on social media. The company confirmed its intention to take legal action against anyone spreading rumors and unofficial news, pointing out the organized activities carried out by the media rooms of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia and their collaborators, both inside and outside Sudan. These rooms are spreading false information through social media platforms via fake pages bearing the name of Sudan Electricity Company.

The Media Coordination Council emphasized that official news related to the electricity sector is sent directly to accredited media channels.
