Restrictions on electricity supply are being tightened in occupied Crimea. Throughout the day, from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., power will be cut off in Kerch and the Leninsky District. Due to the shutdown of water pumps, water will be delivered to local residents by tanker trucks.
This was reported by “Krym.Realii,” citing statements from the Russian authorities on the peninsula and the company “Krymenergo.”
The official reason given for the outages is repair work being carried out by the Tavriya Main Power Grid Company. “Krymenergo” also stated that power restrictions are in effect throughout the Crimea. Backup power systems are being used for socially critical facilities.
Temporary power restrictions have also been introduced in Sevastopol. The city’s Russian mayor, Mikhail Razvozhayev, explained this by the need to eliminate power grid overloads outside the city.

According to him, the electricity supplied to Sevastopol is insufficient to meet the scheduled demand. It is primarily directed to hospitals, water treatment facilities, and other critical infrastructure.
At the same time, residents of Kerch complain that schools also lack heating.
A large-scale blackout occurred in occupied Crimea on the night of October 24. It caused public transit to come to a halt, disrupted maritime traffic, and led to an almost complete shutdown of internet service.
