As a result of the Russian aggression in the Kherson region, more than 30,000 civilian objects were damaged. The housing sector suffered the greatest losses, accounting for almost 95% of all destruction.

In particular, 149 schools, 112 kindergartens, 172 hospitals, 115 administrative buildings and 23 sports facilities were damaged or destroyed due to shelling.

In addition, more than 4,500 civilian objects have been restored in the region. The works are carried out at the expense of the state and benefactors of communities and other regions.

«The implementation of the government program eVidnovlennia is also ongoing. A decision has already been made to charge 1 billion 777 million hryvnias as compensation to more than 4,800 Kherson families whose homes were damaged or destroyed,» he said.
