Residents of Adygea were outraged by the prolonged power outage.

Authorities reported on the work being done to restore power, noting that at least 16,000 people remain without power. Telegram users noted that in some towns and districts of Maykop, there has been no power since December 30.

As reported by the "Caucasian Knot", tens of thousands of people remain without power in Adygea and the Krasnodar Territory. In Kuban, authorities blame the utility company "Akton" for the delay in repairs. About 43,000 residents of Kuban were left without power on January 1 due to snowfall. Emergency outages also affected several railway stations in the Krasnodar Territory, leading to delays in the movement of about 50 trains. In Adygea and the Krasnodar Territory, tens of thousands of people remained without power on January 2. The head of Adygea promised to restore power to the remaining population by January 3.

The disaster response in the Giaginsky, Shovgenovsky, and Koshekhablsky districts remains challenging, Adygea Head Murat Kumpilov announced today. In Goncharka, Giaginsky District, several apartment buildings on Sadovaya Street were left without heat after power lines were down and the boiler room failed. Generators were quickly delivered, and teams of power and utility workers were deployed. Heat was restored to most of the buildings within 24 hours. Two houses are still without power due to heating main problems. Initially, about 28,000 residents were without power, but now their number has dropped to 6,000, he wrote on his Telegram channel.

"In the Shovgenovsky district, as a result of bad weather, power supply was disrupted in 31 settlements - the consequences of the disaster affected 16,000 residents. Power has been completely restored in five settlements, and partially in another six. Twenty villages, auls, and hamlets, where 6,000 people live, remain without power. Residents of the Shovgenovsky nursing home were transported to a rehabilitation center in the Krasnogvardeisky district, where they are provided with everything they need. Other social facilities are operating as usual, with generators being used as needed," the head of the republic reported.

In the Koshekhablsky district, 16,500 people were left without power after the snowfall - residents of six settlements. Currently, about 4,000 people remain without electricity, the head of the republic reported.

He also noted that due to the heavy snowfall, electricians are forced to walk to reach power poles where there are breaks.

In Maykop, door-to-door visits are being conducted, providing assistance to the elderly and people with limited mobility. In particular, they are being transported to relatives or to a temporary accommodation center with overnight accommodation and three meals a day, city mayor Gennady Mitrofanov informed.

Telegram users complained about ongoing power outages

The Telegram channel "Atypical Adygea" published an appeal from one reader, who pointed out that power could have been restored much faster if the roads had been cleared of snow in a timely manner.

This message had garnered 19 comments by 9:30 PM.

"The electrical system in Adygea is simply on its last legs. The wires were hanging haphazardly even before the snow hit, they were old. They short-circuited every now and then. Is it really only the snow that's to blame for the continuous breaks throughout the entire area? Why in the SNT Sadovod-3 had power restored yesterday, but an hour and a half later it went out again? After all, there was no snow or wind. "No power again today," Olga Gavrirenko complained indignantly.

"Kelermesskaya has been completely without power since December 30th. The roads haven't been cleared at all. A grader passed through the village for the first time today. Equipment passed along the bypass road for the first time on the evening of the first. The administration took no action," noted a user who uses an ellipsis as a nickname.

"I don't recall such a collapse in Maykop," noted Yulia.
