Sliema Power Cut Lasts Around Three Hours as Repairs Continue

Parts of Sliema were left without electricity for around three hours on 8 June 2026 as Enemalta crews carried out emergency repair works in the area. The article did not name the specific streets or neighbourhoods affected, nor did it state the precise times at which the outage began and ended. The disruption was not confined to Sliema.

Large parts of Mqabba, Qrendi, and Zurrieq were also without power on the same date, with Enemalta's website listing active outages across all three southern localities. No causes were given for any of the individual incidents. Sliema is a densely populated coastal town in the north of Malta.

Mqabba, Qrendi, and Zurrieq sit in the south of the island, meaning that on 8 June outages were recorded at opposite ends of the country simultaneously. Emergency repair works in Sliema were still ongoing at the time the article was published. Whether power had been fully restored there by the time works concluded was not stated.
