5 subway stations in Kiev are closed ahead of CL final because of bomb threat
Kiev has closed five subway stations including Dnipro, Hydropark, Livoberezhna, Arsenalna and Heroiv Dnipra, mostly in the central part of the Ukrainian capital, after a bomb warning, the subway operator said in a statement.
"The stations are closed to passengers and checks are being carried out," it said on Facebook.
Kiev is hosting the UEFA Champions League final later on Saturday in which Liverpool will play Real Madrid.

It’s true that those subway stations have been shutdown but I am not sure if it’s because of a bomb threat because most subway stations are usually shutdown during important events in Kyiv so as to control the movement of people in and out of those strategic areas. I live in Kyiv and the aforementioned subway stations are not really close to the Olympiski Stadium. Everything is fine here but many thanks for the update. Peace ✌️

Fifa should do something about it.. Lack of security very bad.. Fans will risk their life after safe journey to the venue only for them to be victimized and injured its sad.. Dix seesons champions league has been very deadly and dangerous they should do something about it

Sports have to be out of the business of politics, fanatism and terrorism.
