The Lviv Military Administration is looking for premises where it is possible to deploy beds for Ukrainians from other regions. This was announced by the head of Lviv regional military administration Maksym Kozytskyi on his Facebook page.
«New humanitarian corridors have been launched, people are escaping from the occupied cities, and this means that the Lviv region may need much more shelter than it has now. I appeal to all heads of enterprises, institutions and organizations of various forms of ownership to help the military administration in the deployment of additional places in our region,»- Maxym Kozytskyi said.
