Military operation in UkraineDPR residents from areas under Ukrainian control to be rehoused in temporary accommodation A Telegram chatbot has been launched for those wishing to participate in the special resettlement programDONETSK, October 10. /TASS/. People relocating to Donetsk under a special resettlement program from DPR cities under the control of the Ukrainian armed forces will be provided with temporary accommodation centers during the initial stage, Head of the region Denis Pushilin told TASS. On October 7, the DPR Defense Headquarters called on residents of cities under Ukrainian control to evacuate to Donetsk, pledging to help them find housing. It recommended that they look for "any way to relocate," explaining that "things will only get worse from here." The program is intended for residents of the Slavyansk-Kramatorsk agglomeration -- Kramatorsk, Slavyansk, Dobropolye and Druzhkovka. A Telegram chatbot has been launched for those wishing to participate in the special resettlement program. "A direct communication channel with a specialist is established for each person who contacts us," Pushilin said. To participate in the special resettlement program to Donetsk, applicants must submit their passport, taxpayer identification number and documents establishing ownership of their housing through the chatbot. "The information submitted undergoes several stages of encryption," Pushilin said. "At the initial stage, people will be accommodated in temporary accommodation centers within the republic," Pushilin said.
