Prime Minister of Ukraine Sergey Koretsky denied the information he previously gave about the evacuation of 527 residents of Olshki to Ukraine. "I want to inform you that during question time today to the government, I mistakenly informed the number of people who are planned to leave Olshki. I apologize," Koretsky wrote. According to him, there is still no accurate data on the number of evacuees. The rescue operation is ongoing and the information is constantly changing. The prime minister also called on the media not to spread or comment on information about the evacuation. "This is an extremely sensitive issue. The safety of the people and whether the process can be completed now depends directly on the peace now," he stressed. The authorities promise to publish official data after the completion of the operation. Earlier, during the "Question Hour for the Government" in the Verhovna Rada, he said that 527 people should return to Ukraine via Belarus.
