Residents of a dilapidated building at 13 Zelinsky Street are raising the alarm—their apartments have been included in the so-called "ownerless housing" lists. According to the Mariupol City Council, people are being forced once again to prove their ownership rights, even though many of them now live outside the city.
According to city council representatives, the building suffered severe damage during russia’s blockade of the city, and the occupiers initially planned to demolish it. The residents managed to defend their homes, but 74 apartments remain uninhabitable. Many of the owners now live outside Mariupol. Now, the occupiers have decided to "nationalize" the property.
"There was already a commission back in February 2024, when residents came with their documents. They had to wait outside for hours in the freezing cold… And now, once again, comrades, come and prove your ownership rights. Maybe first, restore the apartments? Why torment people who have already lost almost everything?!", - Mariupol residents complain.
It was previously reported that the occupiers have been issuing residents of Mariupol orders for "ownerless apartments".
