The Kharkiv Metro Has Stopped, Water Supply Is Disrupted

  • Shelling has led to the suspension of the metro in Kharkiv.
  • In Kremenchuk, there is a lack of electricity and water.
  • Points of non-availability have been opened to support the residents.

This is reported by RBC Ukraine, Ukrinform.

On the night of November 8, Russian troops inflicted strikes on the vicinity of Kharkiv. As a result of the shelling, the city faced interruptions in energy supply and water supply, and the metro is not operating, reported Kharkiv Mayor Ihor Terekhov on his Telegram.

According to Terekhov, the city is experiencing a significant electricity deficit, and the company "Ukrenergo" is forced to implement emergency outages. Due to the low supply, some districts are already experiencing interruptions in water supply.

The metro operates in the underground, while surface public transport has been replaced by bus routes. The mayor also added that in Kharkiv, 101 "points of non-availability" have been opened, where heat, electricity, and hot tea are provided.

Attacks on Ukraine on November 8

In addition to Kharkiv, on the night of November 8, Russia attacked other regions of Ukraine, including Dnipro, Sumy, and Poltava. In Kremenchuk, which also suffered from shelling, residents were left without electricity, water, and partially without heating.

The head of the Poltava regional military administration, Volodymyr Kogut, reported that emergency outages have been introduced in the region. Water supply for Kremenchuk residents will be organized as soon as possible.

In the city, electric transport is not operating, so additional buses have been introduced on the routes. All necessary measures are being taken to restore electricity, water, and heating.
