*Urgent update and appeal*
On the night of the 8/9 January, Russia launched a massive attack on Kyiv with both missile’s and drones. Over 60% of the City is currently without power and water. The mayor made the unprecedented decision , to advise residents to temporarily evaluate the City to rural areas or other Cities .
This isn’t alarmism, but a matter of survival. With the onset of cold weather, life in large cities could become physically impossible: multi-story buildings without heat and electricity will turn into concrete freezers, where it’s impossible to warm up, cook properly, or ensure basic safety, given further missile and drone attacks. Despite all the difficulties city dwellers face adapting to rural life, they can at least heat their homes with wood, coal, or any available fuel. A private home, a stove, and minimal supplies—this isn’t a “return to the past” today, but a real chance to survive the winter.
The situation will be especially dire in the Left Bank. There, Russia has knocked out not only generation but also key power lines. Even with electricity, there’s simply nowhere and nothing to transmit it through. Restoring such damage requires time, resources, and equipment, which power companies are already running low on. Therefore, it’s logical to consider relocating to the regions of Right-Bank Ukraine, where infrastructure is generally better preserved and the chances of maintaining at least a minimal power supply are higher. It’s worth noting that back in September, the head of the Union of Utility Consumers, Oleh Popenko, warned: “Look for a place to spend the winter.” Back then, this was perceived as a dire forecast, but today it’s a reality.
As we can see, the choice is stark: either find a place to survive the winter in advance, or end up in a cold city without electricity, water, or heat. The question is no longer one of comfort, but of basic survivial.
Sadly not many people, mainly the elderly and children have the option to move. Also Lviv was hit by a hypersonic missile which has destroyed a electricity plant.
