Residents of the village of Mnogoudobnoye in the Primorsky Territory experienced a power outage on the morning of August 27. Vladimir Nosov, head of the Shkotovsky municipal district, shared the update via a Telegram channel, explaining that two residential buildings containing 78 apartments were left without electricity. He noted that more than 200 people live in these accommodations, underscoring the scale of the disruption.
At the time, DRSK JSC workers were delivering a generator to restore power to affected residents and reconnect services until the fault could be fully repaired. Nosov added that the emergency crews had already addressed the malfunction at the local pumping station the previous day, though several homes still faced a lack of water supply due to equipment failure.
According to Nosov, the Artemovka River, which runs near the settlement, began to recede, and some roads remained flooded despite improving conditions. The flooding complicated relief operations and access for residents and responders alike, slowing efforts to restore full service.
Earlier, on August 25, Oleg Kozhemyako, the governor of Primorsky Krai, announced a regional state of emergency in response to persistent heavy rainfall. The weather event affected more than 5,000 households and caused damage to roads, agricultural facilities, and social infrastructure. Local authorities coordinated emergency response measures to stabilize water and power supply and to support affected residents.
Meanwhile, the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation provided the latest details on temporary accommodation centers in the Primorye region, outlining arrangements for residents who needed shelter during the crisis. The role of these centers was to ensure access to basic care, food, and safety as the recovery operations continued and infrastructure was restored in the affected communities.
