Yakutia Offers Free Land to Combat Veterans and Families

Yakutia, Russia's largest republic, has begun allocating free land plots to combat veterans and their families. This initiative, part of a state program linked to military deployment incentives, aims to encourage enlistment and settlement in the region.

The program, which started in mid-October, offers free land to those who participate in the military service program related to the ongoing operation. This includes not only the participants themselves but also their family members. The initiative is being carried out in accordance with decrees and regulations issued by Yakutia’s leader, Aisen Nikolayev.

Eligibility extends to children of participants under 18, or older if they became disabled before turning 18. Spouses, parents, and relatives of those killed while performing duties during the operation are also entitled to receive land plots. As of early October, 651 plots have been allocated. Children of participants enrolled in full-time educational programs can apply until they reach 25.

The republic's Minister of Property and Land Relations, Pavel Bagynanov, announced these entitlements during the program Dialogue with Authorities. With 572 plots already allocated to combat veterans, the program continues to support those affected by the special military operation.
