Underground parking as a shelter in Kyiv

The photo shows an underground parking garage where residents take cover during an air raid alert: people sit on folding chairs and cots between parked cars, with baby strollers and personal belongings nearby. The scene illustrates why Kyiv has proposed building underground parking shelters near metro stations on the Left Bank. Columns with yellow-and-black hazard markings and the concrete space highlight the typical infrastructure of an underground car park.
