Russian occupation devastated Crimea's Simeiz resort town

The Crimean resort town of Simeiz is in a state of severe disrepair, with infrastructure crumbling and beaches deserted, according to recent reports. Videos circulating online show dilapidated stairs and a general decline in the resort's condition, with many visitors complaining about the dangerous state of the area after 12 years of Russian occupation. The once-popular destination now appears neglected and in a state of decay. This decline has led to disappointment among those who initially supported the annexation, highlighting the failure of the occupation to deliver on promises of prosperity and development for the region.
