About 700 homes have been left without electricity after a power cut in Hampshire.

Scottish and Southern Electricity Networks (SSEN) said it was aware of "damage to our network by a third party", affecting 679 homes in Park Gate and Sarisbury Green.

The incident was originally reported at about 12:15 BST.

SSEN said it was aiming to restore power to the homes by 19:00, after previously giving a resolution time of 16:30.
