As of early 2026, there were nearly 12,000 damaged private homes in the region. Despite the destruction, the builders have already managed to restore 32% of the housing stock (more than 3,800 properties).
This was announced by Vitaliy Kim, head of the Mykolaiv Regional Military Administration, during a telethon.
According to Vitaliy Kim, 32% of the 12,000 damaged private houses in Mykolaiv region have been restored, while in the multi-storey sector this figure is 16% (out of more than 2,000 buildings). 194 houses remain completely destroyed. In parallel, the "eRestoration" program is running: residents of the region have already received certificates for UAH 409 million based on the results of 1390 approved applications.
Special attention was paid to Mykolaiv, which became a participant in the World Bank's HOPE grant project. The program has selected 54 high-rise buildings. More than 150 million will be allocated for their design, and the finished documentation is expected by April 2026. However, the city council is cautious about the timeline, expressing doubts about the possibility of completing all the work by the end of 2027. Tenders for the design of the first 20 houses are already underway.
In particular, in the village of Lepetykha, Mykolaiv region, the Department of Education, Culture, Youth and Sports of the Bereznehuvata Village Council has planned to restore a lyceum that was previously damaged by Russia. UAH 30.4 million is to be allocated for the work.
The educational building No. 1 of the Lepety Lyceum was heavily damaged, despite the fact that its foundations, made of rubble stone, remained intact. The basement of the building has significant partial fractures, tears, peeling plaster coating and cracks. The exterior walls have been partially destroyed, with masonry rows delaminated and the textured exterior decorative layer peeling off.
