Finland to deliver new humanitarian aid package to Ukraine
That's according to the Finnish Interior Ministry's website, Ukrinform reports.
As noted, the destruction of the Kakhovka dam in early June led to a situation where the water supply of thousands of Ukrainians was threatened. Ukraine emphasized the need for assistance in the field of water supply, and Finland was able to respond effectively to these requests, the ministry emphasized.
"Finland has sent water purification materials, water containers, pumps and intensive chlorination units to Ukraine to strengthen the country’s water supply. In addition, new shipments of water production materials and wastewater purification equipment are under preparation," the statement said.
Also, according to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, in addition to the announced assistance in the field of water supply, Finland has recently donated generators, ambulances and other vehicles, hospital beds and equipment for the protection of cultural heritage to Ukraine.
The total amount of material assistance from Finland in July exceeded 250 trucks, the ministry emphasized.
As reported, on the night of June 6, the Russian army blew up the dam of the Kakhovka HPP. People were evacuated from flooded areas in Kherson region. Law enforcement officers launched an investigation under the article "ecocide."
Ukrhydroenergo stated that the Kakhovka HPP was completely destroyed and cannot be restored.
