Recall

On December 8, new cracks appeared in the subway tunnel between Demiivska and Lybidska stations, causing water to seep in, posing a real threat to the safety of passenger transportation. Therefore, 6 stations of the "blue line" of the metro were closed for at least 6 months. 

Later, a shuttle train service was launched between Teremky and Demiivska stations in Kyiv  .
