Smoke has been observed in some districts of the capital due to enemy attacks. Air quality at all stationary reference monitoring stations is within normal limits
Smoke has been observed in particular in the Solomianskyi, Obolonskyi and Podilskyi districts.
This may negatively affect the health of, first and foremost, people with respiratory and cardiovascular diseases, children, older people and pregnant women.
Until the situation improves, specialists recommend:
- close the windows;
- if possible, reduce the amount of time spent outdoors;
- drink enough water;
- if you have an air purifier, turn it on at maximum power.
The air quality index reflects the current situation and may change rapidly depending on how the fire situation develops.
According to reports from the Kyiv Regional State Administration, moderate levels of fine particulate matter have been recorded in the ambient air in the city of Boiarka. This is evidenced by the results of average daily observations conducted by monitoring stations.
In other settlements in the Kyiv region, no exceedances of the permissible levels of chemical and biological substances in the ambient air were observed.
The level of gamma radiation in the Kyiv region corresponds to the natural background level.
