Ukrainians will be able to use the Diia app to file claims for damaged or destroyed property with the International Register of Damages to receive reparations from Russia in the future, said Mykhailo Fedorov, Deputy Prime Minister for Innovation, Education, Science and Technology and Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.
“Starting in April, Ukrainians will be able to file a report on damaged or destroyed apartments, houses, and cottages via Diia if they have a survey report from the local authorities. Then it will be possible to submit applications to the Register if they have not contacted the local authorities,” Fedorov said on his Telegram channel on Monday.
The service was launched after signing an agreement with Markiyan Kliuchkovskyi, Executive Director of the International Register of Damage Caused by Russian Aggression against Ukraine.
“Diia is becoming an important part of the transfer and display of the scale of damage caused by Russian aggression,” the head of the Ministry of Digital Transformation emphasized.
According to Fedorov, this is the first case of international data exchange for which Diia will be used. Later, the possibility of filing claims for forced displacement, harm to life, health, torture and sexual violence will be implemented. At the final stage, it will be possible to file a claim for damage to infrastructure, as well as to file claims for compensation for business damage.
“The Ministry of Justice is working on a rather complicated and lengthy process of reparations, and Diia helps to make the process of applying to the register simple, accessible and safe,” he wrote.
The Vice Prime Minister clarified that the Register of Damage Caused by the Russian Aggression against Ukraine was established under the auspices of the Council of Europe in May last year. To date, 43 countries and the EU, including the United States, Japan and Canada, have joined the Register. Its main goal is to record all claims of damage caused by the war so that Russia can pay fair reparations to Ukraine and Ukrainians.
Work is underway with international partners to create a mechanism that converts information from the Register into decisions on compensation payments to Ukraine and those affected by the war, the statement said.
Dobrobut Medical Network has implemented digital verification of patient data in all medical centers of the Dobrobut network through the Diia application.
According to the healthcare network in its press release, the sharing service greatly simplifies and speeds up the process of filling out patient records and other medical documentation, as well as eliminates the risk of errors.
To receive services in the Dobrobut medical network, a patient can provide a digital copy of his or her ID card or passport through the Diia app. To do this, generate the barcode of the required document in Diia and show it at the reception.
“Sharing is a convenient service for providing copies of documents through Diia. To use the service, the user must have the document to be sent in the app and have Diia.Signature activated,” says Iryna Zabolotna, head of the Diia implementation team at the Ministry of Digital Transformation of Ukraine.
“Dobrobut is one of Ukraine’s largest private healthcare networks. The network includes 17 medical centers in Kyiv and Kyiv region, an emergency service, dentistry and pharmacies. The medical centers of the network provide services for children and adults in more than 75 medical areas. Every year, Dobrobut specialists perform more than 7 thousand surgeries. The network employs 2700 people.
Since the first days of the war, the Dobrobut Medical and Diagnostic Center in Kyiv has been providing 24/7 emergency medical care to Ukraine’s defenders and civilians injured in the fighting.
Thanks to the activities of the charitable foundations Direct Relief International and Dobrobut Foundation, wounded soldiers and people in difficult situations due to the war can receive free medical care at Dobrobut.
“Dobrobut became the first private network in Ukraine to receive funding from the U.S. federal government: with the support of the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), the company will build a modern physical rehabilitation center.
The European cryptocurrency exchange WhiteBIT has launched integration with the Diia public service, the company’s press service reported on Saturday.
WhiteBIT said that thanks to integration with the Diia application, now any user from Ukraine can pass KYC verification on the WhiteBIT exchange in less than one minute. Usually this procedure on all cryptocurrency exchanges requires filling out a questionnaire, scanning documents and time for verification. To pass KYC, it will be enough to select “Quick verification with the Diia app.” After that one needs to confirm the transfer of documents on the Diia app.
“In the conditions of war, cryptocurrency becomes a powerful tool for strengthening the defense capability of our country. It allows raising money for humanitarian aid, the needs of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and terrorist defense. People from all over the world want and are ready to support Ukraine through donations of their cryptoassets. We do not stand aside, but strive be the first to introduce innovations, simplify the path of users and make their interaction with WhiteBIT as comfortable as possible. After all, this, among other things, helps the Ukrainian economy, the army, people who are in trouble because of the war. We are glad that the state is becoming a convenient service and our cooperation with the Ministry of Digital Transformation confirms this. Instead of wasting time on a routine, now our clients can go through the verification procedure in just two clicks,” WhiteBIT CEO Vladimir Nosov is quoted as saying.
