KYIV, April 11 - As of April 11, 2022, the KSE Institute estimated the damage to Ukraine's infrastructure from the war in the country at $80.4 billion, or UAH 2.4 trillion, while over the past week the estimate of losses increased by $12.2 billion, according to a press release from the analytical division of the Kyiv School of Economics (KSE), KSE Institute.
"During the last week, direct losses to civilian infrastructure documented based on publicly available evidence (that is, this is a lower bound estimate and the true losses are likely to be times higher), increased by $12.2 billion. As of April 11, the total amount of direct documented infrastructure damages, based only on public sources, is $80 billion," the KSE Institute said, referring to data analysis within the framework of the Russia Will Pay project.
"The largest increase in the value of damages this week was due to the increase in residential real estate, which was caused both by the increase in destruction and the refinement of previous data on the earlier destruction, as well as some adjustments in methodology. The second reason for the growth is the loss of enterprises assets. The cost of health care facilities, taking into account the structure of these facilities in terms of types (hospitals, clinics, clinics, laboratories, etc.) was specified also in the updated calculations," the report says.
