In Crimea, deputies and volunteers will be sent to homes with prolonged blackouts

The head of the Crimea Sergey Aksyonov instructed to assign deputies and volunteers to such houses so that elderly and disabled people receive the necessary assistance. He stated this at a meeting on working with citizens' appeals in municipalities.

Particular attention, he said, should be paid to high-rise buildings, where elevators do not work due to power outages and it is difficult for elderly residents of the upper floors to leave the house.

MPs and volunteers are tasked with getting around those in need, offering help and finding out who needs medicines or food. Low-income veterans, if necessary, will be helped at the expense of the reserves of the party organization.

In addition, Aksyonov ordered to collect addresses where deputies of the State Council, city and district missions worked, and report on their participation in eliminating the consequences of blackouts.

This practice of targeted assistance has already been used in Crimea during energy problems. In the summer of 2026, volunteers and deputies conducted home rounds in areas with frequent blackouts: they recorded the problems of residents and organized the delivery of water and food.

In the Krasnogvardeysky district, Sergei Kamenev, a participant in the Heroes of Crimea program, together with deputies, went around the houses and reported to the head of the republic about the needs of people. Across the republic, there were more than 150 assistance centers, where you could charge your phone, go online or get advice, and volunteers arranged the delivery of water to villages with idle wells.
