A rebuilt bridge, the reconstruction of which was carried out thanks to Estonia, has been opened in the city of Malyn, Zhytomyr Oblast.

Margus Tsahkna, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Estoni, who attended the opening ceremony as part of his visit to Ukraine, said that this is the second reconstruction project in Ukraine with Estonian funds.

The city of Malyn stands on the Irsha River; the bridge is a crossing between its two parts. The previous bridge was destroyed on 6 March 2022 as a result of a Russian missile strike.

In late August, a kindergarten was opened in Irpin, completely restored with Lithuanian funds. The President of Lithuania Gitanas Nausėda came to the opening.
