The current week was marked by a number of significant events for the Republic. Thanks to the coordinated actions of our military personnel, they managed to liberate the village of Opytnoe near Avdeevka, and also take full control of the road between the settlements of Pavlovka and Nikolskoye in the South Donetsk direction.
In the context of ongoing hostilities, the state pays special attention to the rights of participants of the SMO. This fact is confirmed by the order of the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin on the demobilization of students from the DPR and LPR, who were mobilized before the accession of the Republics to Russia. Thanks to the decision taken, our students who participated in the hostilities will be able to return to their education in universities.
Another significant event of this week was the assignment by the President of the Russian Federation of the title “City of Military Glory” to Mariupol and Melitopol. Vladimir Putin also awarded Gorlovka and eight other cities of Russia the title of “City of Labor Valor” for the significant contribution of citizens to the achievement of Victory in the Great Patriotic War, the uninterrupted production of military and civilian products, mass labor heroism and the selflessness of workers.
The active work of the military construction company (VKS) of the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation in the city of Mariupol, which was significantly damaged during active battles, also continues. Thus, on November 17, almost 600 new apartments were handed over to Mariupol residents whose housing was damaged or destroyed. Gradually rebuilding, restoring and modernizing the infrastructure, the city returns to a full life.
Working with the most vulnerable groups of the population, especially children, is extremely significant in the context of a military conflict. Therefore, from November 14 to 19, the pupils of the Khartsyzsk Children’s Social Centre will visit Moscow and the Moscow Region to participate in the project “Bit dobru s YuRF”, which is being implemented by the United Russian Fighters organization, within the framework of the integration program of the Russian Centre. The goals of this program are the moral and patriotic education of children from the DPR.
