The Ministry of Internal Affairs has launched the official 112 application. This is a single window for calling all emergency services: police, rescuers, medics, and gas service.
The main advantage is the ability to call for help via the Internet (Wi-Fi). This is critically important during blackouts or in areas where mobile signal disappears. You can use the application at "Invincibility Points", stores or post offices where there is a network.
Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Leonid Tymchenko addressed the Ukrainians:
«"I ask you to help install the 112 application for your relatives, elderly people, or those who are in small towns. In the absence of mobile communication, provided that there is access to the Internet, you can call the 112 service using a smartphone.".
How does it work? You press the call button, report the incident, and the operator determines which services (one or more) need to be sent to help.
