Several neighborhoods in the cities of Rabat and Temara were plunged into darkness since 5 pm today due to power outages.

The outrage affected residents of Riad, Al-Manzeh, Masira, and Harhoura neighborhoods.

According to an official source from the communal council of Rabat, the power outage was caused by a large electrical transformer burning in Guiche Oudaya.

Civil protection personnel responded to the scene and were able to extinguish the fire, while technicians from the Ridal company are currently working to fix the defect and restore power.

The company has yet to issue a public comment on the incident.

The cause of the fire which affected entire neighborhoods in Rabat and its surroundings, remains unknown at this time.
