A widespread power cut has hit Malta just after 2pm.
The Malta Independent has received information that there is no power in various areas, including St Julian’s, Sliema, Msida, San Gwann, Birkirkara, Qormi and other places.
A spokesman from Enemalta said that the pwer cut was due to problems with the interconnector with Sicily.
In a statement on its Facebook page, Enemalta said that it is doing its best to restore power in the shortest time possible.
Power is being restored gradually to all places. In a second statement, Enemalta said power was restored to all of Malta by 6pm.
An investigation has been launched.
