Kharkiv Metro to become a 24/7 "Point of Invincibility"
Kharkiv Metro stations will operate around the clock as "Points of Invincibility" for city residents.
As reported by Censor.NET, this was stated in a statement by Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov.
The decision was made due to the difficult power supply situation and the risk of new attacks.
Metro and city aid points
According to the mayor, residents will be able to come to the metro at any time. A total of 101 "Points of Invincibility" are already operating in the city. If needed, another 50 tents will be deployed.
"People will be able to come to the metro around the clock and receive all necessary assistance," Ihor Terekhov stressed.
Kharkiv also has 40 distribution points providing free hot meals. They operate in different districts of the city. The city authorities coordinate their work with volunteers.
Support from Ukrzaliznytsia and the energy situation
