According to the head of the Mykolaiv regional military administration Vitaly Kim, the curfew in Mykolaiv will be from 19:00 to 05:00.
"We have information that mean things are being prepared by the orcs on this night, so I ask everyone to stay at home today ... And tomorrow, if possible, do not go anywhere," he said.
The head of the Kharkiv region Oleg Sinegubov said that curfew time in the region is also changing - it will last from 19:00 to 05:00. There will be no night-time divine services.
At the same time, the head of the Lviv regional military administration Maxim Kozitsky said that because of the sabotage threat it was decided to resume the curfew on Easter night from 23:00 to 05:00. From now on daily curfew will be in force from 23:00 to 05:00.
Curfew on Easter night in the Odesa region will begin at 23:00 on April 23 and will last until 05:00 on April 24. This was announced by the head of the Odesa regional state administration Maxim Marchenko.
In the future, from April 24, the restrictions will continue from 22:00 to 05:00.

These measures were decided to comply with the safety of all residents of the city and region, parishioners and clergy. So, religious rites, in particular, the consecration of food in churches, should be held under curfew. Also, the military administration urged to avoid crowds, even at permitted times, and reminded of the understanding of the possible checks by law enforcement officials.
