The authorities advise temporarily refraining from going outside.

Air quality in the capital has deteriorated due to increased dust concentration. The cause of the pollution is likely to be meteorological conditions, in particular low wind speeds.

This was reported by the press service of the Kyiv City State Administration.

To improve air quality, city authorities recommend:

1) Closing windows;

2) Limiting walks outside;

3) Drinking plenty of water;

4) Activating air purifiers, if available.

Air quality monitoring stations are operating in most areas of the capital. Experts have recorded the following results on the streets:

1) Turivska Street – 82 (high pollution index).

2) European Union Avenue – 79 (high pollution level)

3) Shchuseva Street – 83 (high pollution level).

4) Kytaivska Street – 68 (medium pollution level)

5) Beresteyskyi Avenue – 64 (medium pollution level).

6) Kharkivske Shose Street – 77 (high pollution level).

7) Verbytsky Street – 78 (high pollution level).
