Russia destroys the infrastructure of Ukraine every day. According to KSE Institute, losses since the start of the war have already reached $150 billion. Experts note that these are only direct losses, and the total figure is, of course, much higher. This is a huge amount, for comparison, the GDP of Ukraine in 2022 was about $200 billion. And it was a record for the Ukrainian economy.

The Russians caused the most damage to the housing fund – $55.9 billion, in particular $2 billion was due to the undermining of the Russian Kakhovskaya HPP.
