Evacuation efforts continue in the Korabel district of Kherson

The Ukrainian Red Cross continues to support people fleeing the danger zone, as evacuation efforts from the Korabel district in Kherson are ongoing. Volunteers from our emergency response team are assisting local residents in relocating to safer areas of the city. There, evacuees receive shelter and essential assistance. Our volunteers are present every step of the way — offering support, distributing water, tea, and snacks, and helping people adapt to their new surroundings.

On site, the Ukrainian Red Cross mental health and psychosocial support team is providing psychological first aid. Our psychologists help people manage emotional distress and cope with trauma, offering self-regulation techniques and targeted support to those in greatest need. Children are engaged through games, creative sessions, and other activities designed to reduce stress and restore a sense of safety.

Our teams work in close coordination with medical professionals and social services to ensure each evacuee receives comprehensive care.

As of 12:00, according to the Kherson Regional State Administration, 1,009 people have been evacuated — including 56 children and 110 people with limited mobility.
