This information was announced in the video message by Vitali Klitschko, the mayor of the city. 106 people (incl. 47 civilians, among which there are 3 children and a 17-year-old cadet) have suffered from the actions of the enemy.

As the mayor stated: “Kyiv continues to hold its ground. There are no Russian troops in the city, but our soldiers, law enforcement officers and territorial defence forces continue to uncover and neutralise the infiltrators. There were some fights and shootings at night during which several big infiltration groups were neutralised.”

Russia keep the residential areas under fire. Russia kills Ukrainians all over the country.

The mayor also added that in the morning on the Lavruhina St. there was an explosion in the yard of the 16-store building. 7 civilian cars caught fire and the shock wave damaged the windows and balconies of the 1st-15th floors.

We remind you that there is a curfew till 8:00 am til February 28. The movement in the city is possible only when there is an air raid warning and it is necessary to find shelter. The movement by car is possible only with a special pass. Any other movement around the city is regarded as an infiltration activity.
