Thousands still left without electricity, Ruzyne airport back in full operation

Thousands of homes around the country are still without electricity after gale-force winds cut the power supply to some one-million people on Thursday night. Electricity giant CEZ says most reception points are back in operation but it will take longer to repair the damages caused in mountain areas or distant isolated places.

In related news, Prague Ruzyne airport's North 2 terminal, the roof of which was damaged by the wind on Thursday night, has been reopened and the airport is back in full operation.
