The fire that broke out on a bridge across the Teltow canal in the south-west of the capital early on Saturday could deprive up to 35,000 homes and 1,900 businesses of electricity – and in many cases heat – until 8 January, the grid company Stromnetz Berlin said.

Totally just vibed out that conclusion there eh?
Kind of, I mainly extrapolated from the last similar attacks on our infrastructure
