KYIV, Nov 2 – The lockdown in Kyiv will last at least a month, as the COVID-19 epidemic in the Ukrainian capital is yet to reach its peak, the press service for Kyiv's Mayor Vitali Klitschko said.

"Everything depends on the pace of COVID-19 spread and the occupancy of hospital beds. But specialists have tentatively said that this increasingly challenging period may continue for at least a month," Klitschko told the Ukraine 24 television channel.
