The transportation disruptions follow a broader campaign of drone attacks that damaged the 500/220 kV Taman substation in Krasnodar Krai, a critical supply node for occupied Crimea. The attack caused massive blackouts across the peninsula and parts of the Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson regions, forcing utilities to implement water and power rationing for more than 2.5 million residents in Crimea on a schedule of two hours on and six hours off.
