Weather conditions have paused boats and ferries in Sevastopol, with strong winds and rough seas cited as the main reason. This update comes from RIA News, which reports that sea passenger transport is not possible under the current adverse weather conditions.
Officials said bus services were organized to shuttle people from the city center to the northern part of Sevastopol, ensuring limited mobility despite the disruption at sea.
Earlier, it was noted that Sevastopol Bay boats and ferries halted operations on Monday afternoon due to the windy weather. The city administration confirmed the bus connections between the northern districts and the central area as a temporary measure to maintain essential transportation links.
On February 5, city governor Mikhail Razvozhaev spoke about audible disruptions at the North and South Piers. He explained that the Black Sea Fleet is conducting anti-submarine support training in these coastal zones, which adds another layer of activity to the maritime environment in the area.
In the broader regional context, authorities also reported that several missiles had been fired off the Crimean coast earlier, underscoring the heightened security and military operations ongoing in the region. Residents and visitors are advised to stay informed through official channels for any updated travel guidance or safety notices and to plan accordingly for potential changes in transportation schedules.
