More than 70 residential buildings in Kyiv damaged by shelling

In Kyiv, more than 70 residential buildings have been damaged by shelling since the beginning of the large-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine.



“The extent of the damage varies. Residents have been moved out of the heavily damaged buildings; utility companies receive repair materials for prompt restoration of buildings with minor damage: window film, fasteners, roof repair materials, etc.

The companies transporting wastes, in particular “Kyivkommunservis”, have been appropriately equipped to clear debris. The utility companies promptly restore communications and services so that people can return to their habitable homes,” the press service of the Kyiv City State Administration reports on Telegram.
