On 13 September 2024, Hromadske Radio reported that its broadcasting was temporarily suspended due to lack of electricity as a result of Russian shelling, the outlet wrote in a statement.

Eliminating the consequences of this accident will take several days, Hromadske Radio said, adding that the transmitters of several other radio stations were also no longer functional due to Russian shelling.

“We advise our listeners to follow the news on our app and on social media,” said Kyrylo Lukerenko, executive director of Hromadske Radio.

On September 13, the head of the Dnipropetrovsk regional military administration, Serhii Lysak, reported on his Telegram channel that Russian troops attacked the region of Nikopol with drones and artillery on the night of September 13, damaging an electric power line in Nikopol, among other infrastructure.
