Resident Says No More Electric Shortages in Asmara
The power shortages experienced in Asmara for the last few months have ended, a resident in the city said by phone.

The ending of the electrical issues comes just one month after an Eritrean official tweeted the power shortages would be resolved by the end of December.
According to Yemane G. Meskel, a senior Eritrean official, the blackouts began after 'technical and logistical glitches' at the Hirgigo power plant occurred.
Regionally, reports indicate Djibouti is experiencing prolonged power outages, while severe power blackouts and water shortages since mid-June continue to plague Ethiopia.
