Sadovyi: "We discussed the defence plan and the forces and means that come under the jurisdiction of the city. The situation is changing, so our defence strategies also need to be changed and updated.
A defence headquarters will be set up in each district of the city and additional training will be conducted for members of volunteer terrorist defence units. Until we put them on round-the-clock duty. But this decision can change at any time.
We are also considering the option of forming reserve volunteer battalions from employees of the city council and municipal enterprises.
We are continuing to form a strategic reserve of provisions in case supply routes are blockaded."
Details: According to Sadovyi, it is necessary to prepare for the cold winter and ensure the possibility of heating the city without gas.
The city’s mayor assures that the city is safe.
Мэр Львова уверяет, что город находится в безопасности.
