A fire broke out at a CLP cable bridge in Longping this evening (21st), affecting the power supply.

Power outages occurred in Yuen Long, Tin Shui Wai, and even parts of Tuen Mun.

At about 10 p.m., the fire extinguished the fire completely, and the power company also restored the power supply after emergency repairs.


City life is inseparable from electricity for a moment, and the sudden darkness caught people off guard. Citizens swiped their mobile phones to catch up on the news, while worrying about the phone running out of battery.

During these hours, any trace of lighting, whether it's a cell phone light, a torch, or a candle, becomes extraordinarily bright.
