Compensation payments to flood
victims continue in Kazakhstan. The citizens will also be reimbursed for the
loss of their household belongings, including appliances and water and heating
systems, by the decision of the country’s government. According to Kazakh
Deputy Prime Minister Tamara Duissenova, all medical organizations have been
translated into enhanced mode. Sufficient reserves of medication have been
prepared, and epidemic response teams have been established.
“Residents of the flood-affected
regions received social payments earlier than scheduled. This mode will be
maintained until September 1, 2024. During re-examination of persons with
disabilities and reassignment of targeted social assistance to those who
received it in the first quarter, benefits are automatically extended until
July 1, 2024. Corresponding orders have been issued by the country’s Minister
of Labor and Social Protection of the Population,” Duissenova said.
