With the assistance of international partners, repairs are being carried out in 37 shelters in educational institutions today in Mykolaiv.

The deputy mayor of Mykolaiv for humanitarian affairs, Oleksii Petrov, told about this, the correspondent of «NikVesti» reports.

We would like to remind that educational institutions in Mykolaiv continue to set up shelters for schoolchildren for the period of the start of offline education. On October 25, in Mykolaiv , two new renovated shelters were shown in one of the lyceums of the Korabelnyy district.

Earlier, journalists were shown the condition and readiness of two such shelters in Mykolaiv Lyceum and Gymnasium.

In addition, they promise to repair 23 shelters in residential buildings in Mykolaiv by the end of the year. Currently, specialists are performing work in two facilities on Tsentralnyy Avenue.

As you know, the Mykolaiv region has become one of the six regions of Ukraine with the worst shelter conditions. According to Vitalii Kim, the largest percentage of abandoned warehouses is in the regional center.

We remind that in Mykolaiv, more than 70 million hryvnias were allocated from the city budget for the repair and equipping of shelters. However, the city budget of Mykolaiv will not receive funding from 102 million for the repair of protective structures in schools and kindergartens, which the Cabinet of Ministers has allocated for the Mykolaiv region.

It was also reported that as of October 2023, there is no shelter at the Central City Stadium of Mykolaiv due to constant changes in state building regulations. Mayor Oleksandr Sienkevych emphasized their installation earlier.
