On December 15, the situation with power supply in the Kyiv region is complicated by worsening of weather conditions. Snow and wind gusts up to 18 meters per second have already caused mass falling of trees and power lines breaks.

Kyiv-Sviatoshyn, Borodianka, Vyshhorod and Zghurivka energy centers have suffered from bad weather the most. Overall, bad weather left 25 settlements in the region completely or partially without electricity, and that makes over 10,000 homes. Energy workers are working in an enhanced mode in order to eliminate emergencies and restore power supply to families that remain without electricity due to bad weather.

We ask everyone to keep safety rules in mind — not to approach bare wires, broken lines, open doors and hatches of electrical installations, as well as damaged poles.
