The city authorities ordered the draining of water from the heating networks of about 800 buildings to avoid accidents. At the same time, the Kharkiv subway is operating with delays – the interval between trains will be from 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the subway line in operation.
In addition, there are restrictions on some tram and trolleybus lines. Some routes have been replaced by buses, Tkachuk noted. Diesel transport has been brought in to replace electric transport in some areas of the city.
He added that Russian occupiers dropped five KABs on the town of Derhachi in the Kharkiv district – there is destruction and casualties there.
Meanwhile, the head of the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration, Oleh Syniehubov, noted on the telethon that the most active phase of Russian shelling lasted from 01:00 to 06:00. He added that the occupiers used a significant number of Shahed-type UAVs and missiles, trying to hit our energy facilities. There is significant damage.
Currently, all efforts are aimed at the primary stabilization of the energy system of Kharkiv and the region and the transition from emergency to scheduled power outage schedules. There are 778 Invincibility Points operating around the clock in the region, 101 of them in Kharkiv. In addition, 354 more heating points have been prepared in advance
