| Africa Live: Power blackout hits much of Ethiopia - BBC News | |
| (32 minutes later) | |

| BBC News, Addis Ababa | |
| Ethiopia’s state-run power company has said large portions of the country have been hit by an electricity blackout due to “issues in our system”. | |
| Ethiopian Electric Power did not disclose exactly what those issues were but said in a post on its Facebook page that it was investigating what prompted the outage. | |
| All parts of the country, except Bahir Dar, a city in the north-west, and its surrounding area, have experienced the power problem which began around 15:40 local time (12:40 GMT). | |
| In a separate statement, the company said it had begun restoring power in the capital, Addis Ababa, and some other parts of the country hours after the problem occurred. | |
