UN to visit Kherson in Ukraine
Budrigannews.com – U.N. help boss Martin Griffiths showed up in Ukraine on a four-roadtrip on Monday as authorities hustled to fix energy offices hit by Russian air strikes that have caused winter blackouts.
According to the United Nations, the under-secretary-general for humanitarian affairs and emergency relief coordinator will visit the liberated frontline city of Kherson and the southern city of Mykolaiv.
According to the statement, “Griffiths will see the impact of the humanitarian response and new challenges that have arisen as infrastructure damage increases amid freezing winter temperatures.”
According to the statement, Griffiths will observe how warm shelters are being constructed for residents in the event that they are left without heating, power, or water in Kherson, which was recaptured from Russian forces on November 11 after approximately nine months of Russian occupation.
In a statement, it stated that nearly 18 million people, or roughly 40 percent of Ukraine’s population, require humanitarian assistance.
“Millions of people without means to heat their homes, have clean water or electricity, at the same time as a freezing winter sets in,” it said, referring to waves of Russian attacks on infrastructure.
