For safety reasons, Ukrzaliznytsia is reportedly making adjustments to regular train schedules in Donetsk region.
- The daily scheduled flight from Lviv and Kyiv to Pokrovsk continues to operate until 11.09 inclusive to ensure the transportation of passengers who have already purchased tickets.
At the same time, sales are open until 06.09 inclusive from Lviv and Kyiv and until 07.09 inclusive from Pokrovsk.
According to Ukrzaliznytsia, only evacuation flights with appropriate registration will be available until the security situation improves;
- At the same time, to minimize risks for passengers and train crews, on some days trips will be made in a combined way (train + bus), depending on the operational situation on the ground.
Suburban flights in the region are also currently running, but decisions on their destination will be made on a daily basis depending on the operational situation, and all announcements will be made on the spot at the departure stations.
