Russia declared a state of emergency in Crimea after electricity pylons were blown up with the complete cutoff of power supply to the peninsula from Ukraine, the RIA Novosti news agency reported Sunday.
Emergency mobile generators have been used for power supply in parts of Crimea, which Russia's Energy Ministry said could last for nearly a month.
Curbs on electricity consumption have been imposed in the peninsula as authorities are trying to restore power lines. The peninsula needs an estimated power supply of 480 megawatt.
About 1.8 million people in Crimea still have no access to electricity as of Sunday morning, according to the RIA Novosti.
