Georgia investigates nationwide power outages for potential sabotage
Georgia’s security service is investigating widespread weekend blackouts in Tbilisi and other cities as potential acts of sabotage.
Georgian authorities have launched an investigation into widespread power outages that disrupted electricity across the country over the weekend, treating the incidents as potential acts of deliberate sabotage.
According to the State Security Service of Georgia, the blackouts affected the capital city of Tbilisi alongside several other municipalities during the early hours of July 24 and July 25. While the exact technical cause behind the sudden grid failures remains unclear, security agencies confirmed they are assessing whether targeted interference triggered the widespread supply disruptions.
Local infrastructure operators and emergency crews worked to restore power across affected regions following the outages. Officials have not yet identified any suspects or disclosed specific evidence pointing to external actors or internal subversion as investigations continue.
