What happened

Well supportedReported by 4 independent outlets

Assessments regarding the full-scale invasion in Ukraine indicate that direct damage caused by the war exceeded USD 195 billion (€166 billion) by the end of 2025 alone. The damage assessment was conducted by the Government of Ukraine, the World Bank Group, the European Commission, and the United Nations. Around 14 per cent of the country’s housing stock has been damaged or destroyed, and the reconstruction and recovery needs for the next decade are estimated at nearly USD 588 billion (over €500 billion).
