Kyiv police solve all robberies in 2025 — a police officer leads a suspect away

In 2025, the Kyiv police ensured that robberies were solved 100% of the time. Out of 168 robberies, 167 were solved, and one crime was still under investigation at the end of December.

In 2025, the Kyiv Police ensured the full disclosure of robberies in the capital. During the year, 33 robberies were registered, and in all cases, law enforcement officers identified the persons involved and brought them to justice in accordance with the law.

Also, 168 robberies were recorded in Kyiv, 167 of which have already been solved. One report was received in late December, and the investigation is ongoing. The victims included women, the elderly, minors, as well as military personnel and veterans.

The police note that such results were achieved due to the coordinated work of investigative and operational units, the use of city video surveillance systems and prompt response to each report of a crime.
