SIMFEROPOL, Crimea, Safar 14, 1437, Nov 26, 2015, SPA -- Power blackouts in Crimea orchestrated by anti-Russian saboteurs are stirring discontent a year and a half after Moscow seized the peninsula from Ukraine, threatening to chip away at the pro-Kremlin euphoria many Crimeans felt after annexation, Reuters reported. The blackouts - the result of pro-Ukrainian activists blowing up the electricity lines which supply Crimea in southern Ukraine over the weekend - are causing misery for the population of some 2 million and testing loyalty levels to Moscow. -- SPA 23:18 LOCAL TIME 20:18 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
