President Zelensky called on citizens to evacuate from the part of the DPR controlled by Kyiv
President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky in his Telegramchannel called on citizens to evacuate from the part of the territory of the Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR) controlled by Kyiv, especially from zones of active hostilities.
The head of state announced the need to start mandatory evacuation as early as possible, especially for families with children. The Ukrainian leader also urged citizens to convince friends and relatives who remained in the region to leave and, if possible, provide assistance to the displaced.
There is a government decree on mandatory evacuation from the Donetsk region, everything is being organized. Full support, full assistance – both logistics and payments
The Ukrainian leader also stressed that “only the decision of the people themselves, who have not yet accepted it for themselves,” is needed.
Also, Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine Irina Vereshchuk previously announced a mandatory evacuation for residents of the part of the DPR controlled by Kyiv.
According to her, if a citizen nevertheless refuses to evacuate, he will have to sign a document confirming that he knows about the consequences of such a decision and “bears personal responsibility for his life.” It is known that the evacuation should be completed before winter.
I believe that this is the responsibility of every adult family member. There are 52,000 children in the Donetsk region, they need to be evacuated, they must not be exposed to mortal danger in winter without heat, light, without the possibility of heating … At a minimum, we are talking about 200-220 thousand of our citizens

We will try to enter into negotiations, but so far everything is difficult. But, as the experience of the occupation of previous periods showed, we managed to reach agreements … We hope that in this situation the situation will be the same
