Kyiv to Compensate Apartment Owners with 40,000 Hryvnias for Utility Damage.

Financial Aid for Kyiv Residents

According to Novyny.live: On February 10, Kyiv's City Council approved a measure to provide 40,000 hryvnias in financial aid to residents of the capital whose apartments were damaged due to disruptions in heating and water supply. This compensation is intended for property owners who suffered losses from accidents on utility networks. The ongoing strain on Ukraine's infrastructure from the war has made such support increasingly vital for citizens.

The aid is also available to the owner of another apartment within the same affected building. Additionally, the program includes a separate payment for specific categories of Kyiv residents who suffered damages due to enemy shelling. The amount of this specific aid will be equivalent to one living wage for able-bodied persons, as it will be established on January 1, 2026.

Funding and Support Program

Funding for these payments will be allocated within Kyiv's budget for 2026. This decision is part of the city's targeted program 'Care. Towards Kyiv Residents,' which was approved for implementation from 2025 to 2027. Through this initiative, Kyiv authorities aim to support residents impacted by unforeseen circumstances related to infrastructure damage.
