In the Donetske Forestry Management Unit, due to constant enemy shelling, foresters have lost access to the Krasnolymanske Forestry Management Subunit. It has also become dangerous to work in the Drobyshevske and Krasnopilske Forestries Management Subunits.

Currently, the “Skhidnyi Forest Office” branch is evacuating equipment and documentation from the frontline forestries to the Novomoskovske Forestry Management Subunit in the Dnipropetrovsk region. Several units of firefighting equipment have been left in the Slovianske Forestry Management Subunit to enable rapid response to potential forest fires.

The evacuation of employees’ families from the frontline areas is also ongoing, and foresters are being offered relocation to the Dnipropetrovsk region. All employees continue to receive their salaries.

For safety reasons, all forestry operations have been suspended. Local residents will be supplied with firewood from the neighboring forestries in Dnipropetrovsk and Kharkiv regions.
