Зеленський доручив уряду надати програму безкоштовного проїзду у столичному наземному транспорті
What happened
President Volodymyr Zelensky has ordered the government to prepare a free-fare programme for Kyiv's surface public transport, with a sufficient reserve of buses.
He instructed Prime Minister Serhiy Koretsky to present it as a safeguard against metro disruptions or problems with the Dnipro bridges.
The prime minister, the head of the National Security and Defence Council and the interior minister have presented options for backup transport schemes for the capital.
Officials are now working out how much transport is needed and how to reorganise traffic in certain parts of Kyiv.
On the morning of 7 November, Russian missiles damaged the road surface, trolleybus wires and a power line on Kyiv's Pivnichnyi Bridge, and traffic was closed in both directions.
In the Dnipropetrovsk region, more than 600,000 customers lost power at the peak of the outages, Zelensky said; electricity is gradually being restored.
