An air raid alert has been declared in the occupied city of Sevastopol. Russians claim that the air defense system is operating, according to the head of Sevastopol, Mikhail Razvozhayev.

As Razvozhayev claimed, the air defense system is supposedly operating in Sevastopol. All emergency services are on high alert.

"I ask you to remain calm, follow safety measures, stay in temporary shelters or safe places. The main thing is not to be outdoors. Shrapnel poses the main danger," he wrote.

According to him, Russian military forces are allegedly working on destroying air targets.

Russian Telegram channels also report that traffic on the Crimean Bridge has been blocked.
