The cause is air pollution caused by burning peatlands near Kyiv.

“Due to the excess of the maximum permissible level of pollutants in the air, the entry of large-sized transport into the territory of Kyiv will be restricted from 6:00 to 11:00,” the press service of the Kyiv City State Administration reported.
