Ukraine attacks on Russian-occupied Crimea trigger power cuts in Sevastopol

Is the war entering a new phase? Ukrainian strikes on Russian-occupied Crimea have triggered power outages in its largest city, Sevastopol, according to statements from both sides, as Kyiv intensifies attacks on the peninsula Moscow annexed in 2014. Crimea has been forced to suspend fuel sales to the public as Ukraine's army targets Russian logistics to the region and has hit a series of oil refineries and depots across southern Russia that provide supplies. "The enemy is once again striking treacherously, attempting to deprive us of normal living conditions and sow panic," he posted. He said some areas of the city - where temperatures are approaching 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit) - would be without power until at least Wednesday evening.
