The Sustrecha Belarusian–Ukrainian Volunteer Center, in partnership with other volunteers, has opened a Belarusian Point of Invincibility in Kyiv.
As a result of massive Russian strikes on Ukraine’s energy infrastructure, a significant part of the energy system has been damaged or destroyed. In Kyiv and other cities, power outages can last more than 20 hours. In homes without electricity, there is no heating, communication, or hot water, and temperatures can drop to 5°C and below.
At the Point of Invincibility, people can warm up, charge their phones, have a cup of hot tea, and simply spend time in a safe, warm space.
Sviatlana Tsikhanouskaya: “A Point of Invincibility has been operating in Kyiv for several days. Right now, places like this are becoming vital. I informed Ukraine’s Minister of Foreign Affairs, Andrii Sybiha, about this initiative.
The Point of Invincibility is an example of how Belarusians come together to help Ukrainians who are standing strong and fighting not only for Ukraine’s freedom but for ours as well. Many thanks to all the volunteers and everyone who supported this initiative”.
