Why it matters
The government recommended local authorities adjust Kyiv’s curfew, shortening it by one hour, to help the economy continue functioning. New air alert levels were established, where businesses operate under yellow alerts, and red alerts require mandatory movement to shelters.
The attacks occur amidst a larger conflict where threats of continued strikes are being made against Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine.
