Humanitarian aid, which was sent by Ukrainian authorities on December 24 from Kharkiv to the Eastern Ukraine for the residents of the territories that are controlled by the militants, has been delivered to Kramatorsk and Severodonetsk. This was announced by Vice Prime Minister, Minister of Regional Development, Construction, Housing and Utilities Hennadii Zubko.

According to him, now the Government is making every effort to deliver safely this assistance to the social institutions located in the areas affected by constant attacks of the militants.

Currently, the SES rescue units are delivering assistance to the territory of the clashes, which is all the time under the threat of fire and where the food supplies were terminated," explained Hennadii Zubko.

The coordination of activities to ensure deliveries of the humanitarian aid directly on the spot is carried by Chairman of the SES Serhii Bochkovsky.
