Several stations on Kyiv's blue metro line were closed for entry. What is the reason behind this?

Several stations on the "blue" metro line in Kyiv are closed to passenger entry. The reason for this is a passenger falling under the train.

This information was reported by RBK-Ukraine citing the Telegram channel of the Kyiv City State Administration.

Multiple metro stations on the blue line are closed for passenger entry. These include:

• "Palace of Ukraine",
• "Lybidska",
• "Holosiivska",
• "Demiivska".

Train movement on the line is organized from "Heroes of Dnipro" station to "Olympiyska" station and from "Teremky" station to "Vasylkivska" station.

"At the "Lybidska" station, a passenger fell under the train. Medical personnel and law enforcement have been called to the scene," the KCSA reported.

The KCSA announced that train services on the blue line have been restored. However, the administration noted that the female passenger who fell under the train has been hospitalized.

"The circumstances of the incident are being investigated by law enforcement," the KCSA added.

It should be noted that this is not the first similar incident. Specifically, we reported that on June 27, a person fell under a train at one of the "red" line stations.

And the next day, the incident occurred again on the green line. At that time, a woman fell under a train at the "Zoloti Vorota" station.

Back in July, the KCSA stated that they plan to implement measures to prevent passenger falls onto the subway tracks.
