Kyiv Mayor Vitaliy Klitschko is urging Kyiv residents to stay at home or hide as active fighting is underway in the city.

"In connection with intense active hostilities, the city authorities appeal to residents, especially the Obolonsky district: please do not go outside, as it is dangerous. Please stay indoors - at home or in shelter. You can only go out if there is an air raid alarm ends or is just beginning," Klitschko said at an online briefing on Friday.

He stressed that he is urging people not to leave the premises and residents of other districts of Kyiv.

Klitschko urged the people of Kyiv to be careful and in case of detection of marks left by saboteurs to adjust fire, and to immediately report this to law enforcement agencies.
