According to Oleg Sinegubov, all evacuees are provided with escort in accordance with the road map developed back in 2022.
In particular, they provide all people who need placement in places of temporary residence. However, 70% of evacuees have housing to live in, mostly staying with relatives and friends.
At the same time, almost 900 more places for evacuees were opened in the Kharkov region. If necessary, this number is planned to be increased.
