"You pose your question as if we are drinking from a puddle here": Kim comments on life in Mykolaiv

Life in Mykolaiv continues as normal, with not only critical infrastructure operating but also entertainment venues.

This was stated by the head of Mykolaiv OVA, Vitaliy Kim, during a telethon. The host asked him if electric transport is running and whether there is gas, electricity, and water in Mykolaiv.

- Stop. You frame the question as if we are drinking from a puddle. We have coffee shops, barbershops, flower shops, and electric scooters operating. We live a full life and support our defense forces. All communications are functioning, and electric transport is operational. Karaoke bars and restaurants are also running. Just like in Kyiv, so to speak. However, we face an increased threat, and occasionally terrorists bring us such troubles, - said Kim.

He also added that the critical infrastructure in Mykolaiv and the region is functioning at 100%, with ongoing efforts to further protect its facilities.

- The city and region are living their lives, but unfortunately, the Russians do not let us forget that they are nearby, and that they are terrorists, - concluded the head of the region.
