According to Passengers of Kyiv, the problem has existed for about a week and the situation is still getting worse. The reasons for the depressurization are still unknown.

So, according to the head of the Kyiv City State Administration, there was a lot of water in the tunnel, and this was what dictated the decision to stop train traffic in this section - in order to protect the safety of metro passengers. Specialists are already carrying out all the necessary work.

For his part, the head of the Kiev Metro Communist Party, Viktor Braginsky, reporting to the mayor, said that the situation at this site was constantly monitored.
