President: All settlements affected by floods and fires will be assisted

All settlements affected by floods in western Ukraine, as well as those affected by forest fires in the Luhansk region will receive the necessary assistance. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy assured of that during a working trip to the Chernivtsi region.

The Head of State noted that rescuers who are now working to eliminate the fire in the Luhansk region were able to quickly reach the affected villages thanks to the repaired road Severodonetsk - Stanytsia Luhanska.

"Thanks to this road - it was built - all firefighters reached the place. Everyone is very grateful," the Head of State said, answering questions from the media.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy stressed that all settlements affected by floods will also receive the necessary assistance.

"There are heads of regional state administrations who are "eyes" in the regions. They may not see something, as journalists say, but you will see that all the villages affected by floods will definitely be assisted,” the President said.
