The number of communities in the Rozdelnia district of Odesa region that spent budget funds on territorial defense activities and works during a full-scale war decreased from nine in 2022 to two in 2025.
This was reported by the Center for Public Investigations in its latest study of the actions of community leaders aimed at preparing the population for national resistance measures by financing territorial defense activities and works in 2022-2025 in the context of each budget and comparing these expenditures with those for improvement.
As noted by the CPR analysts, the financing of territorial defense measures by the communities of Rozdilnyanskyi district compared to the expenditures on improvement showed a disproportion not in favor of defense - in total, in 2022-2025, the communities of Rozdilnyanskyi district spent UAH 40.6 million to support territorial defense and UAH 170.6 million on improvement.

Instead, three communities: Zatyshanska, Tsebrykivska, and Novoborysivska, budgeted for terrorist defense only in 2022, and spent money on landscaping every year.
Velykomykhailivska, Velykoploskivska, Zakharivska, and Lymanska communities are regularly budgeted for landscaping and occasionally for terrorism defense.
