Russia’s Emergency Situations Ministry said villages and towns remained without electricity after severe weather. Officials expected repairs to finish around 20:00 Moscow time (21:00 Yerevan time) on 9 November.
Repair crews are working to restore electricity in Dagestan after a grid failure left 89 villages and towns without power on the morning of 9 November, Russia’s Emergency Situations Ministry said. The North Caucasus republic had experienced two days of heavy rain, snowfall and high winds.
Emergency officials attributed the local grid failure to the weather. For the preceding day’s outages, the ministry named short circuits and power-line breaks as the preliminary cause. The Moscow Times cited the ministry’s outage count through Interfax. The number of people affected and the names of the settlements have not been established.
The ministry identified the affected districts as Buynaksky, Gunibsky, Kaytagsky, Kurakhsky, Suleyman-Stalsky, Tabasaransky, Khivsky, Khunzakhsky and Charodinsky. Restoration work involved 12 electrical repair crews comprising 43 specialists and 12 pieces of equipment.
Power outages and other utility failures are common in Dagestan. In 2024, the republic’s housing ministry estimated that 70% of its municipal infrastructure was critically worn out.
Emergency officials expected the repair work to finish around 20:00 Moscow time (21:00 Yerevan time) on 9 November.
