Curfew to be lifted in certain regions
The curfew in Ukraine was introduced after the start of the full-scale Russian invasion in February 2022 as one of the measures of the legal regime of martial law. It prohibits citizens from being on the streets and in other public places during a specified time without special passes or permits.
The specific curfew hours are determined by regional military administrations taking into account the security situation in the region.
At the same time, not all citizens are satisfied with such restrictions. Some Ukrainians believe that in regions with a relatively stable security situation, the curfew should be shortened or canceled.
A petition calling for the cancellation of the curfew in regions where the security situation allows for lifting such restrictions has been registered on the Cabinet of Ministers' website.
The author of the petition notes that the curfew was an important tool for ensuring security during martial law, but now, in his opinion, it significantly affects economic activity and the daily lives of citizens.
The appeal emphasizes that canceling or significantly shortening the curfew could promote business development, cultural events, the revival of the tourism industry, and improve mobility for the population.
"We ask the authorities to consider the current situation and make a decision in favor of citizens and the country's development," the petition text states, №41/010067-26ep.
The author also calls to support the cancellation of the curfew in those regions where it does not contradict security requirements and does not create additional risks for the population.
