Suspension of the capital's metro operations

The Kyiv Metro has temporarily suspended train services and station operations. The cause was a complete power outage, which led to a critical shortage of energy resources required for the underground system to function.

Attack on energy infrastructure

According to available data, the power outage was the result of an enemy drone hitting an energy infrastructure facility. Specifically, reports indicate that the "Nivky" electrical substation was damaged by a suicide drone strike.

The damage inflicted on the facility caused a loss of voltage in the power grid and an emergency shutdown of power supply centres. This forced the Kyiv underground to halt train movements.
