The occupied city of Sevastopol lost power on Tuesday morning after drones attacked energy facilities outside the city limits, said the so-called governor of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhayev, as reported by the monitoring Telegram channel "Crimean Wind."

During the night, Crimean residents reported hearing drones flying over cities on the peninsula. Explosions were also heard in Kerch and near the Simferopol thermal power plant.

Razvozhayev stated that the attack targeted energy infrastructure outside Sevastopol, resulting in a blackout across the city. "Due to the lack of voltage, trolleybuses will not enter service this morning," he said.

Earlier, on the night of July 3, the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Ukrainian Armed Forces carried out multiple strikes on Russian occupation military targets in temporarily occupied Crimea.
