## 14. LONG-STANDING WARNINGS AND THREATS (OVER 2 WEEKS)

These are excluded from the counts and comparisons elsewhere in this report. A record still open after two weeks is either a standing frontline condition (artillery shelling threats along the line of contact routinely run for months) or a stale record that never received an end time; either way it says nothing about the current hour.

**Warnings**

- **Vovchanska (Вовчанська)** — artillery shelling threat, active since May 20 2024, 12:31 (853 days)
- **Vovchanska (Вовчанська)** — urban fighting, active since May 20 2024, 12:31 (853 days)
- **Lypetska (Липецька)** — air raid alert, active since Mar 10, 16:01 (193 days 20 h)

## 15. NOTES, DEFINITIONS AND CAVEATS

This report is generated automatically every few minutes by
[alerts.in.ua](https://alerts.in.ua/) and is valid as of the DTG in the header.
Notes for interpreting it:

- All times are Kyiv local time (Europe/Kiev). Times shown without a date fall
  on the current day. The DTG zone suffix reflects the current offset (B in
  winter, C in summer).
- An *active warning* means an air raid alert is currently in force for that
  area and sirens are sounding. Warnings are issued by regional civil-defence
  authorities, not by this service.
- Place names are transliterated from Ukrainian using the official Ukrainian
  romanization standard, with the original Ukrainian name in brackets.
- Warnings are tracked per oblast, raion, hromada, and city, so a single
  nationwide alert appears here as many separate areas.
- Two different scopes are in play, and they are not comparable. The
  warning status sections count every area at every administrative level,
  while the statistics sections (key data totals, assessment and trends,
  and both regional breakdowns) are computed from oblast-level records
  plus Kyiv city only. An oblast whose alert is currently held only at
  raion or hromada level therefore appears under warning above while
  counting as zero in the statistics.
- Warnings covering the temporarily occupied Autonomous Republic of Crimea and
  Luhansk oblast are nominal: they are declared administratively and remain in
  force continuously, so they do not reflect current conditions. They are
  reported separately and excluded from the headline counts and rankings.
- Warnings and threats open for more than two weeks are listed separately in
  section 14 and excluded from the headline counts, rankings and "longest
  running" figures.
- The Ukrainian Air Force also reports drone and missile launches tracked
  from Russian territory (e.g. Voronezh, Bryansk, Kursk, Belgorod oblasts).
  These are not Ukrainian territory under alert; they are reported
  separately in section 3 and excluded from the oblast counts.
- Adversary losses are figures published by the General Staff of the Armed
  Forces of Ukraine and are not independently verified.
- NSTR = Nothing Significant To Report. D+N counts days from 24 February 2022.
- For structured JSON, historical data, or per-region queries, use the public
  API at https://api.alerts.in.ua/v1 (documented at https://devs.alerts.in.ua/).

This is an open-source information service, not an official evacuation or
emergency instruction. Follow the guidance of local authorities.
