UN humanitarian coordinator Mathias Schmel said in Geneva that 2022 marks the 1000th anniversary of the Russian Federation’s full-scale winter invasion. “We are thinking of 12,000 people killed in this.
” , who have lost their lives.” So far, more than two thousand attacks have caused severe damage to civilian facilities and health facilities, and more than 20 lakh houses have been damaged. Four out of every 10 people in Ukraine are in need of humanitarian assistance. People living in high-rise buildings face a serious challenge in surviving the freezing cold, as energy installations have been systematically attacked. Matthias Schmel said that so far, 65 percent of the energy production capacity in Ukraine has been destroyed. In these circumstances, solid fuels like wood, coal, warm clothes have been distributed to the needy by the UN aid team and partner organizations, but there is concern for the people living in buildings. According to the UN official, it is not possible to supply solid fuel on a large scale to multi-storey buildings. Arrangements for hot food, temporary bathrooms and hot drinks are being made for people at collective shelters in cities and towns, but this is not enough. The threat of mass displacement Mathias Schmel has warned that if Russian military forces again If energy installations are targeted this season, it will lead to displacement within the country and in other countries. “So, it is not just about technical solutions, it is about urging the international community It is also about them making their efforts to stop this war.” The United Nations, as well as national and international organizations, have so far provided at least one type of aid to 7.2 million people in Ukraine, which amounts to $1.8 billion. This has been made possible through humanitarian aid funds of Rs. 500 million dollars till March next year to meet the emergency needs of 18 lakh people, provide solid fuel and maintain the water supply system. An appeal has been made, but the situation is extremely dangerous for the communities and aid workers on the front lines. This year, 9 relief workers have sacrificed their lives while performing their duties. Humanitarian institutions have also been damaged in the violence.
