This time, the "Lukyanivska" station sustained damage to its glass dome and facade, and part of the DSP was ripped off by the shockwave, damaging the station's name.

Metro specialists are actively working to address the aftermath. Some areas of the vestibule are temporarily closed for repairs.

Despite this, passenger transport is running safely, and the station operates according to schedule.

It is reported that during the combined assault on the capital, more than 16,000 people took shelter in Kyiv's metro stations, including 1,660 children.

Currently, 46 underground stations are operating around the clock in shelter mode. All vestibules are open during air raid alerts. On-duty staff provide modular benches, folding chairs, blankets, and mattresses. Meanwhile, metro workers advise bringing warm clothing when going to the station at night.
