The decision was made at a meeting of the executive committee of Mykolaiv City Council.

The changes were made to the comprehensive program to support the defenders of Ukraine, their families and the families of fallen soldiers. The program, which runs from 2024 to 2026, has been updated to strengthen social assistance, in particular to the families of war prisoners and those who have been released from captivity.

The total amount of funding for the program remains at UAH 84.9 million, which will be allocated exclusively from the budget of the Mykolaiv city territorial community. In 2024, more than UAH 26.5 million is envisaged, in 2025 - UAH 28 million, and in 2026 - more than UAH 30.3 million.
