(MENAFN- UkrinForm) Interior Minister Ivan Vyhivskyi announced this on Facebook, Ukrinform reports.

“Given the difficult situation in Kyiv caused by power outages and disruptions to municipal infrastructure, I have instructed the State Emergency Service of Ukraine to urgently set up locations across the capital where people can receive assistance,” the minister said.

The decision was made following a morning conference call chaired by the President of Ukraine.

“The first tents have already been set up in the Obolonskyi, Holosiivskyi, and Podilskyi districts of the capital. If necessary, we will increase the number of these locations both in Kyiv and in other regions,” Vyhivskyi added.

At the State Emergency Service tents, people can charge their electronic devices and access Wi-Fi.

He also said that“we are stepping up public security measures as well, increasing the number of National Police and National Guard patrols on the streets after dark.”

“Today, I also briefed the Prime Minister of Ukraine on the assistance our units are providing to protect critical infrastructure facilities, including bridges. We are doing everything possible to ensure that Russia's plans to paralyze the capital fail,” Vyhivskyi stressed.
