Citizens of Ukraine who have acquired the professional qualification of "doctor" or "nurse" in Ukraine will be able to practice their profession after successfully passing an examination in Bulgarian language and professional terminology in Bulgarian, as well as passing an examination, including state exams. The exam in Bulgarian language and professional terminology in Bulgarian language is organized and conducted by the Centre for Assessment in Preschool and School Education at the Ministry of Education and Science. The procedure for admitting and conducting the exam is free. 

Meanwhile, the situation in Ukraine remains tense. More than 3,000 people have been rescued from the besieged Ukrainian city of Mariupol. More than 6,200 people were evacuated through open humanitarian corridors in Donetsk, Luhansk and Zaporizhia on Friday.

The Ukrainian side has reported a gradual withdrawal of Russian troops to the north.
Poltava and Kremenchuk were attacked by Russian missiles this morning. Earlier, Ukrainian authorities announced a Russian rocket attack on a residential area in the Odessa region, in which people were killed.
As part of the negotiations between Ukraine and Russia, another exchange of prisoners of war took place.
Yesterday, Russia announced that it has opened 10 humanitarian corridors in five Ukrainian regions, and at the insistence of the leaders of France and Germany Emmanuel Macron and Olaf Scholz, an additional corridor has been opened from Mariupol to Zaporizhia. After failing to reach the city yesterday, a Red Cross team will again try to organize an evacuation from Mariupol today.
