Kharkiv region considers expanding mandatory evacuation zone: Syniehubov names districts
Kyiv • UNN
Kharkiv authorities are considering the possibility of compulsory or forced evacuation of children from settlements in Bohodukhiv and Kharkiv districts that are constantly under enemy fire due to the increase in the number of attacks in the region over the past six months.
Currently, the Kharkiv Regional Military Administration is considering settlements in the north - in the Bohodukhiv and Kharkiv districts - for the possible announcement of a mandatory evacuation, possibly forced, of children from those settlements that are constantly under enemy fire. This was announced by the head of the Kharkiv RMA, Oleg Sinegubov, during a telethon, according to a correspondent of UNN.

"We have been recording the intensification of attacks on settlements in Kharkiv region, including the city of Kharkiv, for the past six months. Last night there was an attack by "Shahed". About eight "shaheds" were shot down. We advise people to evacuate from the border settlements. For example, we have actually completed the forced evacuation of children from two communities in the Kupyansk direction. We have evacuated almost 160 children with their families," said Syniehubov.
According to him, they are currently analyzing whether anyone else is still there, as there was information that someone had left on their own, but they need to check every house.
"Compulsory evacuation of 57 settlements in Kupyansk region has also been announced. This is the only way to protect our lives at the moment," said Sinegubov.
When asked whether it makes sense to expand the settlements from which people need to be evacuated or whether the situation is under control, Syniehubov replied: "The situation is under control, but we still have to analyze almost every day those settlements where we have to declare a mandatory evacuation, and now we are considering settlements in the north of our region - Bohodukhiv and Kharkiv districts - in order to declare a mandatory evacuation, possibly a forced evacuation of children from those settlements that are constantly under fire.
Sinehubov said that they also continue to analyze the Vovchansk and Kupyansk directions in order to expand these processes.
