Bad weather is raging in Ukraine. Recorded problems with electricity supply in 12 regions of the state (more than 780 settlements). Most of all - in Khmelnytskyi, Rivne and Lviv region. This was announced by the Minister of Internal Affairs of Ukraine Igor Klymenko in his Telegram channel.

“Unfortunately, as a result of falling trees in Podolsk and Shevchenkivskyi districts of Kiev, 2 men died. And in the Obolonsky district, a gust of wind tore off part of the metal structure of the public transport stop and injured a woman,” the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs wrote.

Rescuers are struggling with the effects of bad weather in all regions of the state. About 100 trees have already been sprayed and removed.

The operational teams of the State Emergency Service and the police carry out monitoring and respond urgently to reports of citizens.

So Igor Klymenko recalled the safety rules during a swirl of bad weather:

  • all windows of houses must be tightly closed, remove from balconies and loggias objects that may fall outside;
  • on the street, stay as far as possible from billboards, power lines;
  • in case of strong wind, hide in the nearest room or natural shelter;
  • avoid being near large trees, and do not park vehicles near them.
