The war in Ukraine has been going on for over 9 years and 8 months since russia annexed Crimea and invaded the east of the country. At the same time, more than 1 year and 8 months have passed since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, and all this time Ukraine has been under heavy shelling by russia. Not only the frontline regions, where active hostilities are ongoing, but also peaceful cities across the country are being hit.

We will tell you where air raid warnings have been sounding for the longest time and how many consecutive days Ukrainians have not heard announcements of a threat from the air.

The longest air alert was in Luhansk region. It was announced there twice: for the first time for 3 days and 15 hours, and the second threat signal has been sounding for more than 574 days.

The second place is occupied by the Autonomous Republic of Crimea, where the air raid alert has been sounded for over 325 days in total. The third place is occupied by Donetsk region, with more than 125 days of air threats recorded here.

How many maximum days were there no alarms in the regions of Ukraine?

Alerts.in.ua has calculated the maximum number of consecutive days that Ukrainians have not heard an air raid alert. The data is for the period from March 15, 2022 to October 28, 2023.

 *between February 24, 2022, and March 15, 2022, the air threat signal was irregular, so there is no accurate data for this period.

Thus, Volyn, Zakarpattia, and Lviv regions were the leaders among the regions that did not hear an air raid alert for the longest time (there was no alarm for a maximum of 28 days). 

Right after them is Rivne region (where Ukrainians have not heard an air raid alarm for a maximum of 24 days in a row).

Ternopil and Ivano-Frankivsk regions are in third place (no air raid alarms were heard for a maximum of 16 days in a row).

Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine, did not hear a signal of a threat of attack from the sky for a maximum of 15 days in a row.

In other regions of Ukraine, the figures are less encouraging. Thus, local residents of other regions of the country did not feel threatened and did not hear an air raid alert for 9 days in a row (in Zhytomyr, Khmelnytsky and Chernivtsi regions) to 1 day at most (in Zaporizhzhia region).

How to support Ukraine?

Unfortunately, the world is actively spreading the narrative that the West is tired of Ukraine and the war, but it is hard to imagine or even put into words the fatigue of Ukrainians and the Armed Forces of Ukraine, who have been defending their country for more than a year and a half, destroying russian evil spirits. That is why supporting Ukraine today is not only about helping those who guard global security, but also about making a personal contribution to the restoration of justice and the victory of good on Earth.
