Russian-installed authorities declared a regional state of emergency in Crimea on 26 June amid intensified Ukrainian drone strikes, after occupation spokesperson Oleg Kryuchkov said about half the peninsula lost electricity on 23 June. Ukraine's Defence Minister Mykhailo Fedorov said on 17 June that Kyiv aimed to turn Crimea 'into an island' by cutting Russian supply lines. The SBU claimed strikes on two cable-laying ships and a ferry in Kerch, which the Kyiv Independent could not verify.
