World Bank estimates Ukraine physical damage at roughly $60 billion so far

　　WASHINGTON Reuters – Physical damage to Ukraine‘s buildings and infrastructure from Russia’s invasion has reached roughly 60 billion and will rise further as the war continues, World Bank President David Malpass said on Thursday.

　　Malpass told a World Bank conference on Ukraines financial assistance needs that the early estimate of “narrow” damage costs does not include the growing economic costs of the war to Ukraine.

　　“Of course the war is still ongoing, so those costs are rising,” Malpass said.
