The risk of population death in war-affected cities during cold weather is growing in the country.
Humanitarian crisis and “absolute destruction”. This is how the UN described the situation in war-affected Ukraine. They also noted that the inhumane conditions in these territories may cause increased mortality. This was announced on Tuesday, October 18, by the UN Humanitarian Coordinator in Ukraine, Denise Brown, writes CNN.
“This is about total destruction. About the loss of life and the total loss of livelihoods in areas directly affected by the war,” Brown said.
He expressed great concern about the upcoming challenge.
“I am absolutely convinced of this: there is a high risk of death in the winter months for families and communities who have nothing left,” he said.
Brown noted that the situation in the country is affected by the change in the front line and the approaching onset of winter. Now the UN is trying to provide “safe, decent and warm places” for residents of frontline areas.
Brown said damage to power plants and thermal plants should be a serious concern to UN member states.
Recall that since October 10, as a result of the attacks of the Russian invaders, 30% of the power plants in Ukraine were destroyed.
It was also reported that nearly 1,200 settlements were de-energized in Ukraine.
