KARACHI: Multiple areas continue to be without electricity after a major power outage hit the city Monday night.



Neighbourhoods affected by the power breakdown include Garden, Clifton, Gulistan-e-Jauhar, PECHS, Malir Halt, Quaidabad, Landhi and other areas.



A spokesperson for the K-Electric said that a high-tension line tripped due to humidity, resulting in the breakdown. KE teams are working to resolve the issue and electricity from alternate sources is being provided to the city.
