Ukrainian government admits severe energy crisis in Kyiv

Kyiv, Jan 12 (Prensa Latina) Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Sviridenko admitted the severity of the energy crisis affecting the country's capital and the entire Kyiv region.

“The most difficult situation persists in some districts of Kyiv and on the left bank of the Kyiv region, particularly in the Boryspil district (east of the international airport) and Brovari district (northeast),” Sviridenko wrote on her Telegram channel.

Last Friday, authorities in the capital reported that the eastern bank of Kyiv was partially without power.

As a result, restrictions were imposed on metro service, and electric buses were used instead. Subsequently, heating supply problems were reported in nine districts of the city.

Water supply interruptions were also reported on both the eastern bank and the Pechersky district due to power outages at water infrastructure facilities.
