One of the evacuated women required medical supervision.
From temporarily occupied territories, 16 Ukrainians were returned to the territory controlled by Ukraine. The evacuation was organized through the Novye Yarilovichi border crossing.
This was reported by the Ukrainian Parliament Commissioner for Human Rights, Dmytro Lubinets.
According to him, the return of each person requires an individual approach, preparation, and coordination. Some evacuees need medical assistance, others — restoration of documents, temporary housing, psychological support, or help in reuniting with relatives.
In organizing the evacuation, the company iHPlc (MHP) and its founder and CEO Yuriy Kosyuk helped. After crossing the border, Ukrainians are supported by specialists from the Caritas Ukraine charitable foundation, which provides financial assistance, temporary housing, and social support.
One of the women remained on the occupied territory for a long time alone. Due to health problems and limited mobility, she could not reach the Ukrainian-controlled territory on her own. To return her, a special transportation, medical supervision, and a safe route needed to be organized.
Another case concerns a married couple from the temporarily occupied Luhansk region. In April of this year, the woman suffered a massive stroke and needed constant care. Her husband, an elderly man with a disability and a rescuer of the Chernobyl disaster, also required treatment and could no longer care for his wife.
The couple planned to evacuate to Kyiv, where their daughter was waiting for them. However, before they could depart, the woman died. Only the husband managed to be returned to the territory controlled by Ukraine.
The ombudsperson emphasized that work on bringing Ukrainians back from temporarily occupied territories continues. Specialists process appeals, assess security risks, and coordinate actions with partners to help people leave and receive the necessary support.
