Let us remind you
"Ukrzaliznytsia" had a technical failure, due to which online services are temporarily not working.
A large-scale cyberattack on Ukrzaliznytsia was prepared by the Russians to destroy services. Customers' personal data is safe, and the money for tickets is promised to be returned.
Ukrzaliznytsia started selling tickets for trains in suburban ticket offices. For the convenience of passengers, the working hours of some ticket offices have been extended and additional cashiers have been involved.
Ukrzaliznytsia is restoring online services after a large-scale cyberattack and offers to buy tickets at ticket offices.
