Today, October 19, 2026, the red line of the Kyiv metro will not operate due to the shelling of the 'Chernihivska' station. This was reported by the co-founder of the public organization 'Passengers of Kyiv'.
Reasons for the metro's suspension
The shelling of the station has led to most trains on the red line not running. Authorities and relevant services are taking measures to ensure the safety of citizens, but this creates significant inconveniences for the residents of Kyiv.
Transport alternatives
The co-founder of the NGO 'Passengers of Kyiv' noted that the launch of several additional buses will not fully resolve the transportation issue. Buses to the 'Darnytsia' metro station will only run after the air raid alarms have ceased, which further complicates the situation.

Reactions from Kyiv residents
