The General Electric Company of Libya (GECOL) announced on Friday, successful repairs on the eastern regions network after a complete power outage on Thursday.

The electricity company added that the network will gradually return the network to work.

Initial investigations into the sudden disconnection of the power lines at the Khums Power Station showed that there was deliberate fire shooting on the transmission towers, which led to their burning.

“The electricity was cut off by an act of sabotage, and the biggest obstacle facing me is the citizen’s lack of confidence in the government,” Dbaiba said.
