A massive power outage left a large part of Argentina without electricity this Wednesday, March 1st.

It was caused by a fire in the town of Campana in the province of Buenos Aires.

As a precaution, the Atucha atomic power plant was disconnected, which resulted in an interruption of the service.

In this context, the federal government filed a complaint before the courts to investigate the alleged intentionality behind the event.

According to Casa Rosada, those responsible committed the crime of "arson and destruction" after setting fire to pastures in the area.
