The Lviv Regional Centre for Hydrometeorology reported that the city of Lviv and the region will remain under an emergency (class 5) fire hazard from 23 to 26 May.<\/p>\n
We urge you to follow fire safety rules.<\/p>\n
As a reminder, unauthorised burning of dry vegetation, which is prohibited in Ukraine, is punishable by a fine of UAH 3,060 to 6,120, and for officials – UAH 15,300 to 21,420. For the same actions committed on the territory of nature reserves, arsonists face a fine of UAH 6,120 to 12,240. And in wartime, such actions are equated with sabotage, which entails criminal liability (imprisonment for 10 to 15 years).<\/p>\n
We remind you of the rules of conduct during a thunderstorm:<\/p>\n
– close windows and doors at home; unplug all electrical appliances – they attract lightning, including the phone – there is a risk of lightning striking while you are talking.<\/p>\n
– when outdoors, do not hide under trees, as they attract lightning; there is also a danger of heavy branches falling, which can break in wind gusts and cause damage; avoid metal fences, billboards, power poles and, in any case, do not open an umbrella if you have one with you – metal rods attract discharges.<\/p>\n
In case of any unforeseen situations, please report to the city’s hotline at 15-80.<\/p>\n
