"We have brought in additional operators to promptly process not only calls to emergency services, rescuers, the police, medical assistance, or the gas service, but also to receive information about a critical situation in citizens’ homes," the statement says.
According to Klymenko, operators immediately pass this data to the emergency response headquarters handling the aftermath of Russian shelling of energy facilities in the city of Kyiv and to the Technogenic and Environmental Safety and Emergency Situations Commission for the rapid organization of assistance to people under the current difficult conditions.
Operators will provide information on the nearest Point of Invincibility or heating locations. And, if necessary, they will direct emergency service crews.
The minister reminded that even in the absence of mobile service, people can contact 112.
To do this, you should connect to a Wi-Fi network (available at Points of Invincibility, shopping centers, medical facilities, etc.), download the 112 Ukraine app and log in. You can also install the app.
