The Government has already allocated the first resources for the implementation of the eVidnovlennia programme – UAH 4.4 billion from the Fund for Elimination of the Consequences of Armed Aggression. A total of UAH 62 billion has already been collected. This was announced by Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal.

The Head of Government noted that almost half of the amount was the seized russian assets. The priority spending of the fund will be on housing repairs, critical infrastructure and pilot reconstruction projects.

“Recovery is already underway. The eVidnovlennia programme has been running for more than a week. It is a programme to pay for the repair of housing damaged during the war. The programme is digitalised, its algorithm is simple and straightforward. Almost 11,700 applications have already been submitted, most of them from residents of Kharkiv, Kyiv and Mykolaiv regions,” the Prime Minister said.

Denys Shmyhal also said that the Government was preparing for the next stage of compensation – the destroyed homes of Ukrainians that could not be rebuilt.

“We are regulating the work of commissions that will determine the grounds for compensation and issue housing certificates for the purchase of real estate. They will be set up in local governments. The members of the commissions must know their powers and carry out their duties clearly. In this way, people will receive compensation quickly and without unnecessary bureaucracy,” the Head of Government stressed.
