Sevastopol in temporarily occupied Crimea came under a drone attack overnight on May 17, the so-called "governor" of Russia's occupation authorities, Mikhail Razvozhayev, claimed.

The city was defending itself from unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) attacks, including with the use of small firearms, he alleged.

As is traditional, he claimed that several targets were destroyed and there were no damages recorded.

Residential homes lost power, though streetlights remain working in Balaklava, the  Crimean Wind Telegram channel reported.
