As of now, following Russia's overnight attack on the Ukrainian capital on January 24, the most difficult situation with heating, water supply, and electricity is reported in the Troieshchyna neighborhood, where about 600 buildings remain without all of these services.

Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko said this in a post on Telegram, Ukrinform reports.

"Utility workers and energy specialists are restoring services after last night's massive attack on the capital's critical infrastructure. The most difficult situation at the moment is in Troieshchyna, where there are problems with heating, water supply, and electricity. About 600 buildings there are without all services. Additional heating points are being deployed (in addition to the 145 that were previously set up in the Desnianskyi district)," he wrote.

Klitschko specified that these are support centers where people will be able to stay both day and night. Such centers are being arranged, in particular, in several schools, additionally equipped with mobile boiler units and facilities for overnight stays (sleeping mats and meals).
