A nationwide power outage in Pakistan left nearly 220 million people without electricity, threatening to cause havoc in the South Asian nation already grappling with fuel shortages.

The country’s Ministry of Energy said in a statement the country’s National Grid went down at 7.34 a.m local time, “causing a widespread breakdown in the power system,” according to initial reports. “System maintenance work is progressing rapidly,” the statement added. A “limited number of grids” in the capital Islamabad and the city of Peshawar have had power restored, the ministry said.

Zaheer, the owner of a clothing shop in Quetta, said they have no backup and have been waiting for the electricity to be restored for hours. “The whole market of Jinnah road is practically shut, as without electricity customers do not turn to shops,” he said. The outage comes as the country’s fragile economy continues to struggle with multiple challenges, including a severe energy crisis.
