The situation in Kyiv
In some areas of Kyiv, there are interruptions in electricity and water supply due to damage to substations, lines, and generation facilities. Work is ongoing to restore power to more than 500,000 consumers. Emergency and hourly power cuts are being implemented, the duration of which is also affected by the drop in temperature.
