Due to the lack of heating in Kyiv, pipe bursts have reached critical levels – social media

Many residential buildings in Kyiv have no heat supply in January.

Residents of the Ukrainian capital are complaining about burst pipes. This has been reported by local public groups.

According to eyewitnesses, water from pipes is flooding the entrances of high-rise buildings in the capital, and in the Gulliver shopping centre, hot water has reached the first floor of the car park.

Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported on Telegram that as of 21 January, just under 3,000 high-rise buildings in the capital remained without heat. Emergency power cuts continue in Kyiv.

Utility and energy workers are working around the clock to restore heat and light to Kyiv residents’ homes.

Earlier, the mayor of Kyiv called on residents to leave the capital due to the lack of heat and water supply after a massive night-time attack by the enemy on critical infrastructure.
