The 370,000 homes built for Ukrainians that have enraged Ireland: As country suffers housing crisis, families fume that war refugees are given brand new accommodation [Video]

Families in Ireland have been left raging as war refugees are handed brand new £370,000 homes while the country suffers a major housing crisis.

The modular homes which include a kitchen-living room, children’s room and master bedroom are complete with furnishings including dishes, bedding, towels, and even  cleaning products.

Funded by the Irish government, the homes which were initially meant to cost around £167,000 per unit shot up to almost £400,000, a report by the Office of the Controller and Auditor General revealed.

By last month, 572 of the new homes had been built, but the building of 82 new units at Haywood, Clonmel, had been delayed to April 2025 due to disruptions from ongoing protests at the site.

Once the project is complete, the modular homes will house 2,640 Ukrainian refugees.
