Large-Scale Blackout Follows Drone Attacks in Occupied Territories

Reports from the monitoring Telegram channel “Crimean Wind” indicate that multiple explosions occurred across the Crimean Peninsula, particularly in Kerch and Sevastopol. The Kerch Bridge was closed for over five hours due to the incident.
According to “Crimean Wind,” it is suspected that an electrical substation near the village of Nekrasivka in the Bakhchysarai district was blown up. Following the explosion at 11:35 PM, power was lost in the area.
After the drone strike, satellite images captured a fire near a civil aviation aerodrome in Kerch, where Russian air defense systems had deployed Pantsir missile systems. A fire is also reported at the oil and gas terminal of the company “TES.”
In Tamansk, near the village of Ilyinka, the “Kuban” transit point of the so-called Crimean energy bridge caught fire.
In addition to Crimea, drone attacks targeted the Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, and Luhansk regions, as reported by the Exilenova+ monitoring channel. Propaganda media reported that Melitopol in Zaporizhzhia experienced a massive attack, with the regional occupation governor Yevgen Balitsky stating that energy facilities were damaged. He noted that the blackout affected a significant portion of the occupied territories in Zaporizhzhia.
Power outages were also reported in various districts of Donetsk, according to Exilenova+. Local sources indicated that electricity is absent in all areas of Mariupol and surrounding settlements.
