The electricity deficit in Kyiv has reached 50 percent, stated Vitali Klitschko, the mayor of Ukraine's capital, during a broadcast on the "Kyiv" television channel. This information was reported by RIA Novosti.

"As of today, the electricity deficit in our city ranges from 25 percent to 50 percent," Klitschko announced.
