Led by Prime Minister Serhii Koretskyi, the Cabinet of Ministers has adopted a new set of measures intended to keep the economy and civilian life running amid Russia’s ongoing daily barrage. In a statement published on Thursday, Sept. 3, Koretskyi recommended local authorities to adjust Kyiv’s curfew from 1 a.m. to 5 a.m., shortening it by one hour from the current curfew, which begins at midnight.JOIN US ON TELEGRAMFollow our coverage of the war on the @Kyivpost_official. “The economy must keep working, taxes must keep flowing into the budget, and people must keep receiving their salaries,” Koretskyi said, adding that “the goal of all these changes is to protect people while also not allowing enemy attacks to paralyze” cities. New air alert system tied to curfew changes The new air alert system was initially announced by President Volodmyr Zelensky on Wednesday, who said that Koretskyi briefed him on measures being prepared in response to Russia’s changing attack tactics. “People must understand absolutely clearly what exactly they need to respond to and how,” Zelensky said. The curfew adjustment comes alongside new air alert levels, yellow and red air. While the yellow will warn of drone raids, red will signal ballistic missiles or large-scale attacks. Under the yellow level, businesses are expected to continue operating, while the red level will require mandatory movements into shelters. Koretskyi said the government is giving businesses three months to guarantee shelter access for staff and visitors, warning that safety could no longer be neglected.
