Telegram users from Adygea complained about unresolved power issues.
Some towns and districts of Adygea have been without electricity and water for over a week, residents complained after the head of the republic announced the lifting of the state of emergency. They say the authorities have abandoned them to survive.
As reported by the "Caucasian Knot," the state of emergency in Adygea, where infrastructure damage following heavy snowfall was being repaired since December 31, will be lifted on January 6, the head of the republic, Murat Kumpilov, announced the day before.
On December 31 and January 1, large-scale power outages occurred in Krasnodar Krai and Adygea, leaving tens of thousands of people without power. In Kuban, authorities blamed the utility company "Akton" for the delay in repairs. On January 2, the head of Adygea promised to restore power to the remaining population by January 3. However, by the evening of that day, at least 18,000 people in three districts of the republic remained without power, and temporary shelters and heating centers had opened in Maykop. On January 4, local residents complained about the prolonged absence of power, heat, and water, noting that some settlements had been without power since December 30.
Social media users commented on the head of Adygea's decision to lift the state of emergency. Thus, the post garnered 168 comments on the Adygea Emergency Telegram channel. Users who left comments today reported that the problems continue.

"We still don't have it in Svoboda! It's already the seventh day," noted a user with a nickname consisting of two dots.
"From Khanskaya. Yesterday I went to get bread and while walking from the train station to the center I was shocked, so many trees were just hanging from the wires. And why don't they clean the streets at least once? It's just awful," added Kyarpinen Lyudmila.
"When will the power be back in the Za Beloy area? The wind blew – they cut it off! It started raining – they cut it off! "It snowed - they turned it off!" - Iya was indignant.
There's no bread or water delivery for the people, the elderly are trapped in the snow.
"I'm so sick of these formal replies. Will the administration continue its work? What kind of work? It never even started! The entire village of Dondukovskaya has been without power since December 30th (only a few houses got power). Electricians can't get through because the administration hasn't cleared the roads since the 30th. There's no bread or water delivery for the people, the elderly are trapped in the snow," added Viktorovna.
"The village of Dondukovskaya has been without power, heat, and communication for eight days now. There's nowhere to charge a phone, nowhere to get water, the house is freezing, and all the food in the refrigerator is gone! Get a grip on our village already." irina Agape`s called.
"There's still no power, but the power grid operator we managed to reach offered to connect a generator," wrote Valentina, without specifying the town.
"Kalinin, between Pobeda and Maykopskaya, today is also the seventh day without power, and therefore, without heating. We've been abandoned to survive; no one has even tried or is trying to fix it!" commented Julia Julia.
As a reminder, on January 4, the head of Adygea, Murat Kumpilov, announced that "about 4,000-5,000 people remain without power" in the republic, although "the situation is stabilizing." "If not for the strong winds overnight and repeated power line outages, the number of homes without power would have been halved," he wrote. Residents of Adygea, commenting on Kumpilov's repost on the Maikop administration's Telegram channel, wrote that power supply problems persist. They also demanded specific information about restoration efforts. According to the Telegram channel "Ostorogno, Novosti," on the third day of water and power outages, Adygea residents were forced to melt snow in saucepans.
