For those who need help with evacuation, transportation is provided; temporary accommodation; humanitarian support; social payments. Of the 11 border villages of Sumy district, from where mandatory evacuation began today, 111 people have already left. This was reported on Saturday, May 31, by the head of Sumy OVA Oleg Grigorov. We are talking about the villages of Rechkovskaya, Belopolskaya, Vorozhbyanskaya and Nikolaevskaya communities. "Today, more than 2,800 people live in these settlements, 367 of whom are children. Evacuation teams go around households, talk to residents, explain details, and help with preparations for departure. The decision to leave home is not easy, but necessary. The constant threat to life from the enemy does not allow for delay," the head of the region noted. It is noted that for those who need help with evacuation, transportation, temporary accommodation, humanitarian support, and social payments are provided. "I call on residents of these and other settlements from which evacuation is being carried out not to remain in dangerous areas. Preserving life and health is the main priority," Grigorov added. It was previously reported that the mandatory evacuation zone was expanded in Sumy Oblast. In total, 213 settlements in Sumy Oblast are subject to mandatory evacuation, the OVA noted. |
