"Dear residents and guests of the city! All boilers and elevators throughout the city will be shut down, and there may be a water outage due to voltage drops across the entire republic", - the "mayor" stated.
Referring to the enterprise "Donelektroavtotrans", Kulemzin also announced that tram route No. 5 "has been suspended due to a shortage of drivers", and trolleybus routes No. 2, 4, 11, 12, and 17 "are not operational due to lack of power".
