  "account": "Kyiv Metro has refuted online claims that the Green Line had been halted because of power outages, instead revealing a provisional special schedule for the line during peak morning and evening travel times. The assertion that the Green Line metro service had been suspended due to power outages is false. On Friday, the municipal operator announced on its official Telegram channel that electric public transport had been temporarily halted in certain city districts. The Syretsko-Pecherska Line, also referred to as the Green Line, is presently running on an interim special timetable during morning and evening rush hours due to limitations on the Pivdennyi Bridge, which permit only one metro train to traverse at a time, according to the operator. Additionally, certain public transport services have been temporarily suspended in the Obolonsky, Podilsky, and Sviatoshynsky districts due to insufficient voltage in the power system, the statement added. Kyiv Metro urges the public to rely on official announcements and refrain from disseminating unverified information.",
