Meanwhile, in Kherson, a local businessman will be paid UAH 3 million to close windows and repair roofing after shelling at facilities owned by the city council.

On February 5, the municipal enterprise "Parks of Kherson" signed a contract worth UAH 3 million with private entrepreneur Viktor Khodykin. Representatives of the utility decided not to hold a tender, citing the order of the head of the Kherson Regional Military Administration Prokudin, which allows local officials to conclude contracts without tenders during the martial law period. This decision was made in connection with the enactment of the decisions of the Kherson Regional Defense Council.

As a result, the contract was awarded to Kherson businessman Viktor Khodykin.
