Air raid sirens in Crimea were switched off not because Crimea is safe but because a senior local official explained that if they left the sirens on, they'd be sounding 22 hours a day, with residents suspecting the real reason is concerns about the tourist season.

The air raid sirens, meanwhile, have been switched off, not because Crimea is safe. A senior local official explained that if they left the sirens on, they'd be sounding 22 hours a day and nobody would get any sleep. Residents suspect that the real reason is simpler. A whailing siren is bad for the tourist season.
