Residents of three residential complexes in Krasnodar blocked Solovyova Regional Studies Street because they had been without electricity for a long time. In this way they tried to attract the attention of “local, and maybe federal” authorities.

Many people took to the streets. There have been massive power outages there for a month now. It all started with once a week, then it went up to three, but now some people have no light for 12 – 15 hours a day. Locals complain that it is +39 in Krasnodar, there is no water, and power engineers do not respond to their calls. Utility workers connect a spare transformer to power each side of the house in turn and supply water there.

People shouted “Give me some light!” In the end, the mayor of Krasnodar, Evgeny Naumov, came to them. And he made an epic statement.

I won't leave here until the power supply is restored. Now we will sit down with the management company, we will be with you. If you want, you can handcuff me to a pole,” he said.

The official explained that the reason for the outages was problems at the Rostov NPP. The Russian Ministry of Energy is forcing people to turn off the lights, saying that the power substations can’t handle it. He also asked people to move out of the way so as not to interfere with cars, and suggested that they gather somewhere to discuss everything.

There were people standing behind him armed Russian Guards, and people interrupted the mayor, objecting to him. They clarified that so far they had only brought technical water. Naumov promised that drinking water would be brought soon, and they would also install a new cable. At the official’s proposal to chain him, some applauded, and some remarked, “We’ll be locked up.”

But later security forces dispersed the protesters from the roadway, and the police detained several people. The video from the scene shows Russian Guards in helmets and with batons.
