Ukrainian grid has been targeted by russian drone and missile strikes for years and it just keeps coming back. Longest downtime (according to a quick google search) was approximately 12 hours. Complete long term blackout in a big European city is very unlikely these days.

    Long term as "days", yes. But all of Spain had a blackout for at least 12 hours a few weeks ago. Turin, Italy, had a 10 hours blackout yesterday.

      Makes me more impressed by the Ukranians honestly! After Russia is banished they can teach the rest of Europe what resilience looks like in this area.

      Not all of Spain. A lot of areas had the power back in two hours, at least in the North.
