Councilors and entrepreneurs from Dupnitsa stated their readiness to receive and accommodate refugee families from Ukraine. On social media a local real estate broker urged the people from the town to put up refugees from Ukraine. He promises to compile lists of real estate provided by their owners plus the conditions under which the property is being provided for the needs of temporary accommodation, and to help organize the process.

I believe we shall reopen our hearts and our homes and demonstrate our empathy,” the broker said. Municipal councilors responded to his call and announced how and where they can put up the people fleeing from Ukraine.
