Summary
The Russian-occupied Crimean peninsula is facing a severe fuel and energy crisis as Ukraine targets Russia's transportation infrastructure. Sevastopol, the largest city in occupied Crimea, experienced a complete power outage overnight on June 24. Moscow-installed authorities have introduced scheduled power outages and banned gasoline sales to the public. The crisis has devastated the local economy, with businesses going bankrupt en masse and the tourist season collapsing. Only the most determined tourists remain, and the region braces for a difficult summer without adequate fuel supplies.
