The organised evacuation of people from frontline areas is still going on in Ukraine. Between 1 June and 12 September 2025, almost 89,000 people were evacuated to safer regions, including over 9,400 kids and over 2,900 people with limited mobility.
Here’s the evacuation data by region:
- Donetsk region — over 66,000 people evacuated, including more than 6,000 children and nearly 500 people with reduced mobility;
- Dnipropetrovsk region — over 14,000 people evacuated, including more than 2,600 children and nearly 600 people with reduced mobility;
- Sumy region — over 2,800 people evacuated, including more than 300 children and over 700 people with reduced mobility;
- Kherson region — over 2,500 people evacuated, including more than 160 children and almost 200 people with reduced mobility;
- Kharkiv region — over 2,300 people evacuated, including more than 80 children and nearly 1,000 people with reduced mobility;
- Zaporizhzhia region — over 650 people evacuated, including more than 80 children and nearly 15 people with reduced mobility.
Today, there are 19 transit centres operating in several regions of Ukraine. Most of them are located in the Dnipropetrovsk region — eight, including in the cities of Pavlohrad, Dnipro, and the villages of Stepove and Voloske. Five transit centres operate in the Sumy region, two in the Kharkiv region, three in Volyn, and another one has been opened in Mykolaiv for evacuated residents of the Kherson region. The Zaporizhzhia Regional State Administration is considering the possibility of opening a large transit hub in Zaporizhzhia.
People receive comprehensive assistance at transit centres: humanitarian, medical, psychological, legal and social. They are helped to restore their documents, apply for benefits and social services, and receive financial support from the state and humanitarian organisations.
Since the beginning of August this year, the transit point in Pavlohrad has received almost 9,000 people. Since 19 August, more than 2,500 people have passed through Lozova, and since 23 August, almost 840 have passed through Volosky.
After the transit centre, evacuees can use the services of free temporary places for temporary residence (PTR). In total, there are 1,090 PTRs in Ukraine, providing more than 77,000 beds for IDPs. Currently, more than 6,000 places remain vacant. More than 3,500 places have been created for persons with disabilities and people with reduced mobility, of which 99 are vacant.
The largest number of TAs have been created in the following regions: Dnipropetrovsk – 130; Zakarpattia – 111; Kharkiv – 78; Kirovohrad – 76; Lviv – 68; Poltava – 64; Chernivtsi – 63; Vinnytsia and Ivano-Frankivsk – 60 each; Rivne – 58; Khmelnytskyi – 57.
The evacuation of the population is carried out in close coordination with the State Emergency Service, the National Police, local communities, volunteer organisations and international partners. Special groups of the State Emergency Service ‘Phoenix’ and the special unit of the National Police ‘White Angel’ are working directly in the frontline territories.
They are equipped with armoured transport, medical supplies and equipment necessary for the transportation of all population groups. At the same time, the Ministry of Social Policy, Family and Unity, together with local authorities, is organising transport for people with reduced mobility to hospitals and specialised institutions immediately after evacuation.
The priority remains to create adequate living conditions for vulnerable groups and to set up new temporary accommodation in safer regions of Ukraine.
