This has meant that for certain hours at a time, certain areas will have no electricity or power whatsoever. Strikes on Monday for instance left citizens in Kyiv without water and power for hours.
But while the power is down, not all hope is lost, and locals area reportedly pulling together to provide assistance to one another when the lights are out and it electricity is shut off.
Pavlo Kukhta, a Kyiv local who also just so happens to be President Volodymyr Zelensky’s fomer energy advisor, told Express.co.uk: On Monday, we did not have any power or water, as did most citizens of Kyiv.
“People are pretty p****d off, but they have hope. Self-organisation is pretty good. In our elevator for example, immediately a local barber shop left out emergency supply boxes loaded with water, crackers, medicine and a simple sedative. They provide a bunch of supplies in case a person gets stuck in an elevator, but of course they leave a QR code as an advertisement for their barbershop.
