“At the moment the situation is far from (the need) to announce an evacuation,” the country’s prime minister said
Ukrainian Prime Minister Denis Smykhal said today that for now there is no need to evacuate Kyiv or some other cities that are not close to the front line in the war against Russia.
He made the comments at a cabinet meeting following Russian attacks on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure and after the mayor of Kyiv warned residents to prepare for a worst-case scenario in which the city could run out of water. and electricity.
“Right now the situation is far from (the need) to announce an evacuation,” Schmihal said. “We have to say that announcing the evacuation of any city that is not near the front line, especially the capital, will not make sense at this time.”
In recent weeks, the Russian forces have intensified their attacks against energy infrastructures of Kiev, as a result of which the Ukrainian capital is facing a serious problem in heating, electricity and water supply.
