Big Orange TV: Rehovot Residents Hoped for a Quick Restoration of Electricity


Hundreds of people streamed into the streets of Rehovot in about 30-degree heat, when the city went dark Monday 20-21 PM. Many walked down the stairs of their residential buildings because elevators weren't working. Some people were stuck in elevators and were rescured by Fire Department 102 rescue teams.

For some reason or other, there was a power failure on Monday evening. The water supply was safe and we did not hear of any injury by those trapped in non-functioning elevators or dark streets. Emergency city phone number 106 was working.

Some people remained in their apartments and even managed to... solve Sudoku Puzzles under the candle light.

After the electricity was restored at 20:53 PM, traffic light remained dead in a number of locations that we inspected.


Previous daytime "blackout" in Rehovot happened a year ago (see My Rehovot, 5 June 2006).
