Razvozhayev claimed that the attack had been repelled.

According to him, the loud noises heard in the city were caused by the Russian military repelling an attempted attack by a naval drone. The uncrewed vessel has supposedly been destroyed.

Background: Since 17 July, the occupation authorities of Sevastopol have introduced power outage schedules in the city: the power will be cut off every 2 hours, for a total of 12 hours a day.
