Power restored to northern Kosovo Power was restored at midday after the Serbian electricity system intervened. The power cut severely hampered life in northern Kosovska Mitrovica and all of northern Kosovo. There are currently 4,000 patients at the hospital in northen Kosovska Mitrovica. District Governor Radenko Nedeljkovic dismissed claims by KEK officials that the power cut had been due to a fault with the power lines.
