خلفية ثقافية
During power outages, Ukrainians use 'Points of Invincibility' to charge phones. It's common to see dozens of people sharing one generator. The 'low battery anxiety' is a universal modern phenomenon, but in Ukraine, it's tied to staying informed about air raids. Most modern cafes in Kyiv provide sockets and even wireless chargers as a standard service to attract remote workers. Newer Ukrainian buses and trams often have USB ports for passengers to charge their devices for free.
