Details: Residents of the city complained on social media about loud explosions at night.

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.
