By KYIV. Nov 29 (Interfax-Ukraine) – To date, 299,642 applications on the destroyed and damaged property of Ukrainians due to Russian armed aggression have been submitted to the Diia application, the total area of damage is 20.724 million square meters, Head of the Servant of the People party MP Olena Shuliak has said.
"Diia received 47,407 applications from Mariupol temporarily occupied by the invaders on damage and destruction of almost 3 million square meters of housing (2,949,113 square meters). The invaders do not stop and continue lawlessness, depriving residents of a roof over their heads. To hide the consequences of their bombing, they began to demolish residential buildings in the historical center of Mariupol and its environs," she wrote on Facebook.
The MP also added that the building at 85, Myru Avenue built after the Second World War and a house at 33, Azovstalska Street in the Left Bank district of Mariupol have already turned into construction waste.
"But this was not enough for the invaders, and they began to remove houses from the maps of the Russian Yandex. This is how it happens – on the Google map there is still a house at 33, Azovstalska Street, but in Yandex it does not exist in reality. We are recording everything and will rebuild everything after our victory and not only in Mariupol," Shuliak said.
She called the timely receipt of compensation for the destroyed housing the main task.
"To do this, we adopted bill No. 8027 at the final reading, which allows quickly repair damaged housing and critical infrastructure. We are preparing bill No. 7198 on compensation for destroyed and damaged housing for the second reading. Soon, Parliament will vote on bill No. 5655 on urban development reform. It will launch new approaches in the construction industry that will ensure digitalization, high responsibility for violations, public monitoring of urban development processes, and the reform will also allow high-quality monitoring of the use of funds provided from the budget and donors for the restoration of the country," Shuliak said.
