Ukrainians can receive new aid of over 20,000 UAH.

The Ministry of Reintegration of Temporarily Occupied Territories has started distributing financial assistance in the form of solid fuel to eight regions of Ukraine. The payments are made with the support of the United Nations Refugee Agency.

It is reported that the first tranche of financial assistance is already being received by vulnerable categories of the population living in the frontline territories. Each recipient will be paid 21,000 UAH to purchase solid household fuel.

The Deputy Head of the President's Office, Iryna Vereshchuk, expressed her gratitude to local self-government bodies and regional military administrations for their work in forming the lists of aid recipients. She noted that this will allow supported households to start purchasing fuel in November and prepare in Time for winter.

In August last year, the Ministry of Reintegration and the UNHCR signed a memorandum on support for frontline communities during the winter season. The program's budget is $37 million, which allows supporting vulnerable households with solid household fuel.
