Around 1,600 buildings in Kyiv without heat after Russian attacks

Electricity shortages and damaged energy facilities in the Ukrainian capital Kyiv mean that many residents still lack heat in their homes. The immediate cause is the ongoing Russian attacks.

Authorities in Kyiv estimated on Sunday that 1,100 residential buildings and another 500 buildings lacked electricity while the winter cold remains severe.

There is no exact information on how many residents are directly affected, and many residents have also left the city temporarily.

Deputy Prime Minister Oleksiy Kuleba said that new Russian attacks have also damaged the railway system in the Odesa region and in areas of Dnipro.
