Zara and other Inditex shops reopen in Ukraine with a large influx of customers | Video

Lviv/Kyiv (Ukraine) - Customers returned to Zara, Pull&Bear and other Inditex shops in Lviv on Thursday after the Spanish group reopened last week in Kyiv, with the textile giant completing the list of international brands that have returned to Ukraine after a long hiatus in the wake of Russia's 2022 invasion of the country.

Despite the western region of Lviv becoming the target of Russian attacks on Ukraine's energy infrastructure overnight, a long queue of customers formed near Zara's entrance to the city's Forum shopping centre minutes before opening.

"It's the first time I come here after the reopening."

"I also plan to go to the Zara and Zara Home shops".
