He made this statement during the 3rd International Summit of Cities and Regions, as reported by RBC-Ukraine.
"We are actively working on increasing the number of civil protection facilities. Today, there are over 61,000 of them in our country, but this is not enough. This number — 61,000 — can cover and provide protection for only about half of the population of our state," said Klymenko.
According to the Minister, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has put about 20% of previously inadequate protective structures into readiness. As of June 6, more than 40,000 basic shelters have been registered.
"We have created more than 600 primary mobile shelters. This is also a new initiative for Ukraine, and for the world, when there was an urgent need to provide not only underground shelters but also above-ground or semi-buried shelters for our citizens," emphasized the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
