Water supply problems are also being reported in Crimea.

On July 15, Kerch and several districts of occupied Crimea were left without power following a new attack by the Ukrainian Defense Forces.

This was reported by the Telegram channel ASTRA.

“Unfortunately, as a result of an enemy UAV attack, Kerch is completely without power. Essential services are operating on backup power sources. All municipal services have been mobilized for emergency restoration work,” said the Kremlin’s appointee in the city, Ivan Koshel.

The so-called “Krymenergo” added that as a result of Ukrainian Armed Forces drone attacks on power facilities, some settlements in the peninsula’s Northwest and East power districts were left without power.

In addition, they assured residents that they are currently doing everything possible to restore power.
As of the morning of July 15, power restrictions are in effect throughout Crimea.

“Power outages will occur on an ad hoc basis depending on the situation in the power districts. Under the current circumstances, it is impossible to inform the public of the time when power will be restored,” Krymenergo added.

The State Unitary Enterprise of the Republic of Crimea “Voda Kryma” officially confirmed that, as a result of an accident on the “Krymenergo” networks, water pressure has been reduced in nine districts of the occupied peninsula.
