Smoke in several Kyiv districts due to enemy attacks: Kyiv City State Administration gives advice to residents

Kyiv air quality within normal limits despite smoke

Smoke is being reported in some parts of the capital following enemy attacks. Air quality readings at all fixed reference monitoring stations are within normal limits.

This was reported by Censor.NET, citing the Kyiv City State Administration’s press center.

Smoke in Solomianskyi, Obolonskyi and Podilskyi districts

Smoke has been reported in the Solomianskyi, Obolonskyi and Podilskyi districts, among others.

It may have a negative impact on health, especially for people with respiratory and cardiovascular conditions, children, older people and pregnant women.

Until the situation improves, experts recommend:

  • closing windows;
  • limiting time spent outdoors, if possible;
  • drinking enough water;
  • turning an air purifier to its highest setting, if available.

"The air quality index reflects current conditions and may change rapidly depending on how the fire situation develops," the Kyiv City State Administration said.
