Power outages have affected the entire Crimean peninsula

In occupied Crimea, power restrictions remain in effect on November 10 due to a shortage of electricity. Russian energy officials say they are currently unable to adhere to the scheduled power outages. In Sevastopol, the rotation schedule has been reinstated: two hours with power and six hours without.

This was reported by Krym.Realii, citing the occupation-run company “Krymenergo.”

According to the utility, the restrictions apply throughout the occupied peninsula. They are justified by the need to prevent power grid overloads and new outages. At the same time, it is currently impossible to distribute available power evenly or notify consumers of outages in advance. Power is cut off on an ad hoc basis, depending on the situation at individual power distribution nodes.

According to “Krymenergo,” backup power supply systems are being used for socially critical facilities.

Due to power problems in Sevastopol, trolleybus service on routes 5, 7, 10, 12, 14, and 20 has also been suspended. Buses are running in their place, while other bus services are operating at extended intervals.

Emergency power outages were also reported in settlements across the peninsula. On the morning of November 10, five villages in the Rozdolne District were left without power: Steregushche, Slovianske, Vogni, Aurora, and Kukushkino. According to “Krymenergo,” power was expected to be restored within three hours.

A power outage was also reported in the village of Shchebetovka near Feodosia. Restrictions remain in place in Yalta as well, where, according to Svetlana Shevchenko, a representative of the Russian occupation administration, power is cut off depending on the current situation in the power grids, without the possibility of giving residents advance warning.
