Earlier in the Kyiv region, rescuers had to retrieve the same man from a well for the second time. According to preliminary information, the man was in a state of alcohol intoxication.


It should be noted that in Zhytomyr, rescuers assisted a man who climbed onto a support of a suspension bridge in the center of the city and could not descend by himself.


Additionally, in Odesa, people got stuck on a ride in Shevchenko Park. The system stopped working due to a power outage.

The tourist was found in the Bolotyn Hrun area of the Rakhiv district in an exhausted state. He was fed, given hot tea, treated for wounds, and then taken to the village of Bohdan and handed over to the emergency medical service.
