Crimea opens doors to kids from Russia`s fire stricken areas

SIMFEROPOL, the Crimea, August 11 (Itar-Tass) - The Crimean
authorities have invited children from Russia's fire-stricken regions to
come and have rest in the Crimea.
"Crimean health improvement centres are ready to receive 300 children
a month," Crimea's Prime Minister Vasily Dzharty said.
The Council of Ministers of the Crimean Autonomous Republic passed a
relevant decision on Tuesday. It is discussing the matter with the Crimean
Ministry of Public Health and is trying to find funds in the local budget.
"The Crimea cannot be indifferent when such a big trouble has hit
Russia," Vasily Dzharty emphasized.
A day earlier, on Monday, the administration of the Odessa region
invited thousands of young Russians from fire-devastated areas of Russia
to have a vacation in recreation camps near Odessa. It will cover all the
expenses of the children's stay in the Odessa region.
The list of recreation camps that can receive the children from the
fire-stricken areas will be sent to Kiev to coordinate the schedule of
their arrival. Almost all Black Sea camps are willing to accommodate
children from Russia. But not all of them can do that in August. For
example, the Young Guard camp in Odessa, the biggest recreation centre in
Ukraine, is now full to capacity. It will be able to receive Russian
children only in September.
