Wounded people who were evacuated from areas where hostilities are taking place are brought to Lviv. And most often these are not the military, but civilians who suffered from the war.
Andrey Sadovy, the mayor of Lviv, told Channel 24 about this.
He emphasized that the international community is somewhat shocked, but there are 5 times more civilians in Lviv with military injuries than fighters.
Most of the people who come to Lviv with severe injuries – women, children and the elderly. And it's emotionally difficult to see with your own eyes, – says Sadovy.
The mayor of Lviv confirmed that they want to build one of the most powerful rehabilitation centers in Europe in the city. It will be created on the basis of the First Medical Association, the largest in Ukraine.
According to him, the war provoked the construction of such rehabilitation centers. At one time, this was done in Israel, the USA, etc. Ukraine is studying the experience of these countries.
There is even a working title for this project – “Indestructible”. “As invincible are all our Ukrainians, so are our people who were injured,” Sadovyi said.
The mayor of Lvov spoke about the wounded. ” Someone stepped on a mine, someone got bombed, these people will need help for the next few years, there will be psychological rehabilitation,” he added.
