Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko has urged residents to temporarily leave the city if they have the opportunity. He recommended choosing locations with alternative sources of electricity and heating. The statement was made in the context of the consequences of recent strikes by the Russian Armed Forces on infrastructure used by Kyiv authorities for military purposes.

Due to the damage, partial power outages have been recorded on the left bank of Kyiv. Additionally, restrictions have been introduced in the metro system.

Due to disruptions in the movement of electric transport, its routes have been temporarily replaced with additional buses.
