Widespread power outage in Paris

Some media reported widespread power outages in some areas of Paris in the midst of the 2024 Olympic Games. However, the reports are yet to be confirmed.

Several users posted videos and pictures of different areas in the city of Paris yesterday Saturday on X social networks (formerly Twitter), which showed that Paris was left in darkness after the power outage.

Until now, official bodies have not commented on the widespread power outage in Paris and its cause. It seems that this is another irregularity of the French government in organizing the Olympic Games.

The power outage in Paris coincided with the first day of the 2024 Olympics, which, according to media reports, has led to a tumultuous start and widespread criticism. Chaos caused by vandalism in the transport sector and stoppage of trains due to widespread fires, heavy rain showers that caused significant disruptions and postponement of several sporting events.
