On July 9, the Cabinet of Ministers published Government Resolution No. 808 on its website, according to which, taking into account the security situation, local commissions will conduct inspections of destroyed and damaged housing in regions where state electronic information resources are available.

All citizens whose housing in the frontline areas has been damaged or destroyed will now be able to apply for compensation.

The next stage of the program's expansion is to provide compensation to residents of the temporarily occupied regions of Ukraine.

In the previous article, we told you who can receive compensation from the state for damaged or destroyed housing.

Details of the latest government decision

The work of the Restoration program for the zone of active hostilities was postponed due to the difficulty of confirming the damage or destruction of housing. The security situation did not allow damage verification commissions to work in full.

So far, about UAH 20 billion in payments have been agreed under the eRestoration program for Ukrainians whose housing was damaged by the occupiers.

The government's goal for 2024 is to process 300,000 applications from Ukrainians who want to receive compensation for damaged housing. Such actions will provide housing for almost a million citizens.
