Details: TASS reported that the Sevastopol Bay has recently seen many closures due to drone attacks.

Quote from the Directorate for Road and Transport Infrastructure: "Dear passengers, sea passenger vessels are currently not operating.

Replacement services along alternative routes will be organised at the terminus points on Zakharov Square and Nakhimov Square."
