Quote from Syniehubov: “We are currently considering a possible mandatory evacuation from several more settlements. Everything will depend on the military situation we will have there.”

Details: Syniehubov said two fronts are currently the most dangerous in the oblast: Borivske-Lyman and Kupiansk, both in the Izium district. 

The latter, according to the oblast military administration, is currently home to about 2,500-3,000 people, including 256 children. 

Syniehubov said that 299 children were previously removed from frontline hromadas in the Kupiansk district during a mandatory evacuation.

“Together with their families, this amounts to 500 people. All of them have been provided with temporary housing in Kharkiv,” Syniehubov summed up.
