UAUkrainian forces have conducted coordinated attacks over the past year targeting critical infrastructure in occupied Crimea, significantly degrading the region's energy system. These strikes have led to a severe power shortage, resulting in almost complete darkness in cities and along roads during nighttime hours due to both destruction and the need for energy conservation. The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reported that Ukrainian forces have attacked key electrical substations, railway infrastructure, and military airfields, damaging or destroying aircraft, storage facilities, and other vital assets. On July 3, 2026, a major attack targeted multiple critical energy and gas transportation infrastructure sites, confirmed by satellite monitoring systems. Additionally, Ukrainian drones struck Russian military airfields, including the airport in Saki, where seven Russian planes and several hangars were damaged. The attacks also disrupted railway logistics by damaging a bridge over the Red Guards Canal.
