The Minister reported that on Friday, August 16, he received the first results of the MOH commission's inspection.

"Unfortunately, there are cases of distortion of key information that is officially presented to me, to the media, and contained in documents, both from the hospital's management and the Foundation," Lyashko noted.

According to the head of the MOH, the decision to declare the company the winner of the tender was made by Zhovnir, which was reported to the public on the hospital's official page. At the same Time, no appropriate recommendations on the final choice of the winner from the Working Group of "Okhmatdyt" were received.

Lyashko added: the MOH adheres to the plan that the processes of restoration of "Okhmatdyt" will take place under the supervision of the Council for Restoration. On Saturday, August 17, a meeting will be held to select seven participants from among the public representatives, that is, the Council in the composition of 15 people will be finally formed. The Minister asked the Council to meet on Monday to consider a phased plan for the restoration of "Okhmatdyt" and provide their recommendations.

The process of restoring the "Okhmatdyt" children's hospital in Kyiv, which was destroyed by Russian missiles, will now be monitored by a special Control Council.

We remind you that earlier Lyashko reported that the tender for the reconstruction of the "Okhmatdyt" children's hospital, which was attacked by the occupiers' missiles, would be canceled. Instead, it will be held again.

As it was reported, the Charitable Foundation "Okhmatdyt" determined the winner of the tender for the repair of the hospital building, which was damaged by a missile strike on July 8. It became LLC "Bud-Technologies". The publication "Nashi groshi" published a journalistic investigation about the inflated prices of this contractor.

We remind you, on July 8, the Russian Federation carried out a large-scale missile strike on the city of Kyiv. One of the launched missiles hit the "Okhmatdyt" children's hospital in the capital. One of the hospital's buildings was completely destroyed, and several buildings were damaged. It was also known about two people who died on the day of the strike. Later, it was reported that a child who was in "Okhmatdyt" after surgery died in the intensive care unit.
