The controversy stems from a report by Eagle Intelligence, which alleged that David Arakhamia, head of the Servant of the People parliamentary faction, had instructed members to relocate by October 17. Faction spokesperson Yulia Paliichuk confirmed to LIGA.net that no such directive exists from either Arakhamia or Speaker Ruslan Stefanchuk. Despite the official denial, the atmosphere in the capital remains strained as air raid alerts grow longer and more frequent.
Russia has steadily intensified its aerial campaign, utilizing a mix of ballistic missiles and high-altitude, jet-powered Shahed drones. UN monitors noted that civilian casualties in Kyiv reached a record frequency in September, further fueling anxiety as the winter heating season approaches. While President Volodymyr Zelenskyy recently warned of potential massive strikes, the government continues to navigate a complex landscape of defense shortages and tentative diplomatic overtures, including proposed technical-level talks in the United Arab Emirates.
