Lubinec revealed where the evacuated residents of Oleshky are being housed

Evacuated residents of Oleshky are being resettled in three regions of Ukraine—Chernivtsi, Volyn, and Zakarpattia—after receiving medical treatment. Some are reuniting with their families, while others are being provided with housing.

This was reported by Dmytro Lubinets, the Verkhovna Rada’s Commissioner for Human Rights.

According to him, this is already the second wave of relocations following discharge from hospitals. The first took place over the weekend. Regional representatives of the ombudsman in the Chernivtsi, Volyn, and Zakarpattia regions met the evacuees at train stations.

A family that had been separated for two years traveled to Bukovina to be reunited. The woman had been living in territory controlled by Ukraine, while her son and his wife remained in Oleshky. Now they will be settling into their new life in Bukovina.

A married couple whose home in Oleshky was destroyed arrived in Volyn. They will settle in temporary housing.

Two families of elderly people and one man arrived in Zakarpattia. They will be housed in a temporary shelter for internally displaced persons (IDPs). According to Lubinets, the facility was set up with the needs of the new arrivals in mind.

Lubinec noted that while still in the hospitals, the residents of Oleshky received cell phones, clothing, and hygiene supplies. They were issued passports, identification codes, bank cards, IDP certificates, and living allowances. They also received financial, medical, social, and psychological support.

For those who cannot stay with relatives, temporary housing is being arranged. The issue of care for people with limited mobility is being addressed separately.

According to the ombudsman, everyone is now safe, and his team is coordinating the efforts of the involved services to ensure that assistance continues even after discharge from the hospital.

The humanitarian mission in Oleshky took place during the ceasefire, which was in effect from October 27 to November 1. During this time, humanitarian aid was delivered to the city’s residents, and several hundred people were able to evacuate.
