Under the adaptive quarantine strategy, Ukraine color-codes its regions green, yellow, orange or red, according to the severity of the outbreak there.
Currently, 12 Ukrainian oblasts are yellow and 12 are orange.
The city of Kyiv is in the yellow zone. That requires all establishments, such as restaurants, cinemas, gyms and cultural institutions, to operate with lower capacity. The establishments can also choose to allow only vaccinated visitors and keep the full capacity. To see a complete list of restrictions and exemptions, click here.
