Some major cities are still partially or completely blocked. Mariupol city is stormed by Russian troops, metallurgical plant AZOVSTAL is seriously destroyed.
There were several missile attacks on military facilities and oil depots near Kiev, Lviv, Lutsk and Dubno. However, civil infrastructure was not destroyed.
Companies in regions that are still not in zone of active military actions generally continue operating, however, they face difficulties with logistics. Mainly, they sell goods from the storage, but new deliveries of goods are very difficult.
