A power outage tracker monitoring the region also said that it was no longer receiving data<\/a> for Sumy Oblast.<\/p>\n Sumy Oblast is one of 24 administrative regions, known as \u201coblasts,\u201d that make up Ukraine and has a population of roughly one million people.<\/p>\n Social media users reported that explosions had damaged the combined heat and power (CHP) plant<\/a> in Sumy, resulting in a loss of heat, water and electricity. A video shared by a journalist from the Indian Deccan Herald<\/em> newspaper reported to show Indian students sheltering from bombardment<\/a> in the region and appeared to confirm details of the explosion and power cut. The city of Sumy has been a particular focus of media coverage in India after it emerged that an estimated 600-700 Indian students at Sumy State University were stranded and unable to leave<\/a>. <\/p>\n The communications blackout in Sumy Oblast is the most serious outage since the Russian invasion began and appears to be on a larger scale than incidents reported in Kharkiv and Kyiv. On February 23rd, areas of Kharkiv and the surrounding region lost connectivity<\/a> after infrastructure belonging to the internet service provider Triolan was damaged, although internet services were mostly restored shortly afterward.<\/p>\n While some analysts have expressed fears of a more widespread internet outage, it has so far failed to materialize. Some Ukrainians are now able to access satellite internet through SpaceX\u2019s Starlink service<\/a> after Ukraine\u2019s vice prime minister tweeted to Elon Musk requesting that the service be extended to cover the country. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n
