His Excellency Prime Minister Professor Kamil Idris was briefed on the Ministry of Energy's efforts to repair the damage inflicted upon the Hawata, Geneid, Mashkour, Faw, and Markhiyat power stations due to the systematic targeting of these facilities by the terrorist rebel Rapid Support Forces militia, and to restore electricity service as quickly as possible. This came during his meeting today with the Minister of Energy, Engineer Consultant Al-Mu'tasim Ibrahim Ahmed, and the Director General of the Sudan Electricity Holding Company, Engineer Consultant Abdullah Ahmed Mohammed. The meeting addressed the targeting of the 'Markhiyat' transformer station this morning via a drone attack carried out by the rebel Rapid Support Forces militia, which caused severe damage to the station and took it out of service. The meeting also covered the technical repercussions of the attack, which caused power outages across large parts of Khartoum State, River Nile State, and several other states, in addition to reviewing the damages sustained by the Hawata, Geneid, Mashkour, and Faw stations, which significantly impacted the stability of the national electricity grid. The meeting received assurances regarding the efforts currently underway to assess all damages at the Markhiyat station to begin immediate repairs and address the malfunctions, in preparation for restoring electrical service to its normal state as soon as possible.
