Irpin was visited by Frank Schwabe, Germany's parliamentary state secretary at the Federal Ministry of Justice and Consumer Protection.

This was announced by the Kyiv Regional Military Administration; the details are set out by Informator Bucha.

Accompanied by representatives of the Kyiv Regional Military Administration, the German official toured the Romanivsky Bridge, which became an evacuation route — a "road of life" — at the start of the full-scale invasion, used by thousands of civilians to flee the city. During the visit, Schwabe was briefed on Irpin's defense, its liberation, documented Russian war crimes, and the community's recovery after the occupation ended.

Community representatives stressed that visits from foreign partners matter greatly — they let visitors see the consequences of Russian aggression firsthand and better understand the support Ukraine needs. Irpin officials thanked Germany for its consistent support and solidarity with the Ukrainian people and expressed hope for further cooperation.
