In the capital, a specialized transportation service for defenders returning from the front and with mobility restrictions has been launched. The project is implemented based on 'Kyiv Military Hub' and ensures barrier-free access to medical, rehabilitation, and administrative institutions. This is reported by the KCSA.
Deputy Head of the KCSA Marina Honda stated that the service is part of a systematic support for veterans. 'Returning to civilian life is a complicated process. Accessible transport is a basic condition that allows a person not to feel isolated,' she emphasized.
