Regretfully this was one of the first towns that was invaded in the current Russian-Ukraine war and a number of these surgeries are completely or partly destroyed. Subsequently other units have been set up in Malawi, India, Zambia and Sierra Leone over the past two decades. From 2017 onwards the emphasis has been switched to education for the very poor and current projects include a school and an orphanage in India and a rehabilitation Centre in the Ukraine.
