The Irkutsk governor has decided to increase payments for war veterans in Ukraine by 2,5 times.

According to Igor Kobzev, The decision to raise the regional payment from 400 to one million rubles was taken at a meeting of the operational headquarters: it will come into force after it is approved by the deputies of the regional parliament (which the governor has no doubt about).

“I believe it is our duty to support in every possible way those who stood up to defend the Motherland, our heroes,” — Kobzev writes and reminds that in the region “there are 39 social support measures in place for SVO participants and their families.”

“It’s interesting to know about the 39 support measures,” one of the residents wrote in the comments. "For some reason, no action has been taken against us. My husband died in the North-Eastern Military District."

In response, she was advised to seek advice from government agencies.

“I contacted you a year ago. We’re not a good fit,” the resident clarified. — It only looks beautiful on paper. But in reality, it's nothing."

Relatives of the missing SVO members have left numerous questions:

"How can I get an appointment with the governor? We haven't been able to get through for five days. All we hear is an answering machine," they write (the answers to these questions have not yet been published).

Other residents ask why there are no sons of deputies at SVO.

"At the operational headquarters, decide with your colleagues to go to the SVO as a whole; it will be more beneficial." — they recommend Igor Kobzev.

The highest payment for contract soldiers is currently in effect in Samara region — 3,6 million rubles. At the same time, she spreads only for officers and those who re-signed (everyone else is offered 2,1 million rubles).
