Zelenskyy orders clear criteria to ensure continued operation of state bodies, local authorities, businesses during drone attacks

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy has directed officials to establish clear criteria for ensuring the continued operation of state agencies, local governments, businesses, and other economic and social entities during a yellow-level threat, specifically during drone attacks. The Ukrainian government, along with local authorities and the military, must update the threat response system to enable these entities to maintain operations.

Additionally, Zelenskyy has instructed the preparation of additional support measures for businesses, including the rapid deployment of modular shelters and compliance with updated safety requirements. The president also announced a weekly audit of threat response protocols and consultations between the government, local authorities, and the business community.

The education sector, including schools and kindergartens, will maintain its current rules. This comes as Zelenskyy plans to introduce a two-level threat alert system, with yellow indicating drone attacks and red indicating missile threats, including ballistic and massive attacks.
