We remind that 4 school buses, which were purchased by the International Solidarity Fund of the Republic of Poland , were handed over by the Mykolaiv OVA to the Sniguriv community.

A total of 15 buses purchased with the funds of the communities and the regional budget were sent to 13 communities of the Mykolaiv region, in particular: Buzka, Vilnazaporizka, Vradiivska, Yelanetska, Kazankivska, Kamianomostivska, Nechaianska, Olshanska, Prybuzka, Radsadivska, Syniukhino-Bridska, and Stepivska.

We also remind, at the beginning of the year, the mayor of Mykolaiv, Oleksandr Sienkevych, said that in order to transfer the learning process in Mykolaiv to an offline format, it is necessary to provide the city with school buses, since some of the institutions were destroyed by the Russians. He noted that Mykolaiv generally lacks public transport, as part of it was handed over to the military, and part was destroyed or damaged by shelling.
