In Odesa, 11 internally displaced persons (IDP) families received keys to their own apartments as part of a joint initiative between KADORR GROUP and the NGO “IDP Ukraine”, according to the Ministry of Social Policy, Family, and Unity.
Two of these families are from temporarily occupied Bakhmut, where their homes were completely destroyed by Russian rockets.
There are things that cannot be compensated to people who lost their home due to the war. But having their own housing returns a sense of stability to the family and the opportunity to rebuild their lives – to work, send their children to school, and think about the future.
– Minister of Social Policy, Family, and Unity Denys Ulyutin.
