The government announced a new program to support veterans in May. The maximum payment is 95,000 hryvnias. Up to 2,000 hryvnias is also provided to cover related banking services.
The funds can be used to purchase devices from a specified list, which includes 26 types of equipment. The veteran is free to choose specific devices. Assistance is provided regardless of whether the person receives other types of social benefits.
This was announced by Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko on Telegram.
As a reminder, the government has expanded housing rental compensation for veterans: who is eligible and how much they can receive.
The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine adopted, in the second reading and as a whole, draft law No. 12295-d, which provides for compensation for the costs of mandatory civil liability insurance for owners of land vehicles (OSCPV) for certain categories of the population.
