What happened
Mayor Vitali Klitschko reported that 4,480 apartment buildings in Kyiv have suffered damage from Russian attacks, with 4,227 buildings having been restored to date. The mayor appealed to the State Treasury to unblock city funds, stating that this blockage is halting critical restoration work. Separately, a Russian drone attack in the Pechersk district damaged a five-story building and disrupted water supplies across Kyiv.

Why it matters
The extensive damage to residential and energy infrastructure in Kyiv, resulting from ongoing Russian attacks, places significant strain on municipal resources. The appeal by Vitali Klitschko for the State Treasury to release funds highlights a critical bottleneck in the city's ability to repair physical capital and restore housing.
The ongoing war involves massive missile and drone attacks on Kyiv and Kharkiv.
