The issues of refugees and people living along the contact line in the Anti-Terrorist Operation (ATO) zone are the top-priorities for representatives of FAO UN and a USAID delegation.

According to the press service of Donetsk Military-Civilian Administration, USAID and FAO UN representatives met with acting First Deputy Head of Donetsk Military-Civilian Administration Serhiy Natrus to discuss their priorities.

"First of all, it's help with agriculture, providing people with sources to improve their households, provide food for animals, seeds for sowing season, etc. Therefore, people in the so-called 'grey area,' and not only refugees from Donbas will be able to do something, create a normal routine," reads the statement.
