In Kyiv, due to a shortage of electricity, the operation of ground electric transport - trams and trolleybuses - will be stopped.

From now on, buses run on all ground electric transport routes.

The mayor of Kyiv Vitaliy Klitschko told about it.

According to him, 222 buses will run on the routes where trams and trolleybuses used to run.

"These are additional 38 bus routes to replace trolleybuses, and 17 to replace trams," the head of the capital noted.

Today, a total of 440 buses operate on 126 bus routes of the city.

This is the entire rolling stock of buses that are in Kyiv's fleet, Klitschko noted.

Private carriers also operate: a total of 846 buses on 98 routes.

Klitschko noted that the Kyiv metro continues to operate.

Currently, 50 stations out of 52 are open. Two stations - "Hydropark" and "Dnipro" - are temporarily closed.

In addition, since December 20, Khreshchatyk and Maidan Nezalezhnosti metro stations, which were closed since the beginning of the full-scale invasion of the Russian Federation, are open.

We will remind you that the Russian occupiers attacked the capital and the Kyiv region with their drones at night on December 19.

The invaders managed to hit 

the object of the capital's critical infrastructure.

As a result of the attack, the electricity situation in Kyiv and the region worsened even more.

As of the evening of December 23, there are emergency power outages.

Instead, the local authorities increased the number of heating points in four districts (map).

And the mass media showed satellite images of Kyiv in the evening before and after the massive rocket attacks on critical infrastructure.
