The mayor of Kyiv, former professional boxer Vitali Klitschko, has traded rhetorical punches with Ukraine’s president and his allies over how to help residents withstand power cuts, deriding their disputes as “senseless” amid Russia’s military campaign.
Mr Klitschko said 430 ‘warming centres’ were helping residents cope with the effects of Russian attacks on power stations, and more than 100 more were planned in case of extreme conditions.
