The central Asian nations of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Kyrgyzstan suffered electrical power outages in major cities on Tuesday, according to authorities and residents, after a major power line in Kazakhstan was disconnected.
The grids of the three ex-Soviet republics are interconnected, and via Kazakhstan are linked to the Russian power grid which they can use to cover unexpected shortages.
But Kazakhstan's North-South power line, which links densely populated southern Kazakhstan and its two neighbours to major power stations in northern Kazakhstan and the Russian network, was disconnected on Tuesday morning due to "emergency imbalances" in the Central Asian part of the grid, grid operator KEGOC said.
The blackout caused chaos across the region for several hours, with subway trains stuck in tunnels and skiers on lifts, airports closing, district heating and tap water pumps going idle and traffic lights switching off.
Neither [sic] of the three countries reported any problems with its power stations that could have caused the imbalances.

First thing I thought of, and in fact, that’s pretty much what happened.
Sucks to be them.
They won’t stan for that.
Try saying the names of those three countries fast.
Say one right after the other.
Good exercise for loosening the tongue and jaw.
Make it look planned, Stan!
I’m sure, once the boys from the WEF/Davos discover the “slopes of Kazakhstan”, this will all be a thing of the past.
This outage also affected supply of electricity from that region to Afghanistan.
Maybe Russia will target Davos?
We can only hope. When do the a-holes meet next?
“Try saying the names of those three countries fast.”
I tried that and now saliva is leaking from my mouth.
Lol!
"Neither [sic] of the three countries..."So Reuters is unhappy with the usage of "neither" (which means two) describing three countries, but they are perfectly happy with "their" and "they" (plural) being used in the singular.
Remember teaching Geography in 7 th grade. The “stans” were always the most difficult to remember for the kids.
did Putin stop a color revolution in Kazakhstan recently?
is this cyber attack just the NWO trying to regain lost ground?
is Ukraine just a thing because Putin stopped a color revolution in Kazakhstan?
But they have plenty of fossil fuels in the ground, I hear.
All muzziestans.
Can someone explain how bitcoin mining Can lead to increased power uses prompting a shutdown?? I honestly don’t get it.
Rueters used “neither”
