What the KCSA advises
The Kyiv City State Administration advises to follow the operational updates of Kyivpastrans and take into account possible delays in traffic. In the event of prolonged power outages, minibuses and buses can partially reinforce the directions where trams or trolleybuses stop.
This is not the first time that Kyiv has changed its transportation schedule due to power outages.
A similar situation was already observed in the winter of 2022-2023 after massive shelling of the Ukrainian power grid.
As a reminder, Ukraine is initiating the convening of the Board of Governors of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in connection with a new wave of Russian attacks on energy infrastructure.
