Volodymyr Zelensky appeared to criticise the mayor of Kyiv for failing to provide enough emergency shelters for residents during his regular speech to the nation.
Following Russian attacks on energy infrastructure, Ukraine has established thousands of so-called “invincibility centres” where people can access heat, water, internet and mobile phone links.
More than 4,000 centres have been set up so far in Ukraine.
In an evening address, Mr Zelensky indicated that “more work needed to be done” in some areas such as Kyiv, where Vitali Klitschko is the mayor.
"Unfortunately, local authorities have not performed well in all cities. In particular, there are a lot of complaints in Kyiv.
“To put it mildly, more work is needed,” he said.
“Please pay attention – the people of Kyiv need more support a lot of them have been without power for 20 or even 30 hours. We expect quality work from the mayor’s office.”

It is always someone else’s fault when it comes to Zelensky. And, the answer is always more money from American taxpayers.
Klitchko must not have given Zelensky requested bribe money.
There are about 3M people left in Kiev, and I’m hearing Klitsko is encouraging people to leave the city if they have some other place to go.
Hey Z - you provide heat, water and shelter for a million urban citizens in the middle of war.
Ukrainians can nonetheless probably achieve some level of mutual support, because even though they know they have a completely corrupt and dysfunctional government, they maintain a base of their common humanity, and shared culture, civilization and heritage.
Think instead if this had to be done in NY City?
Let them settle it in a boxing ring. My money is on Klitchsko.
What a miserable life, thanks to Putin. No matter how corrupt Ukraine is/was, the people didn’t deserve this.
Successive fascist regimes in Kiev have been attacking civilian infrastructure in the Donbas since 2014 while the West turned a blind eye...maybe its time the Ukies felt some of that pain.
