13.6M Ukrainians receive humanitarian assistance during war
Humanitarian organizations continue to support the Ukrainian people. Since February 24, 13.6 million Ukrainians have received humanitarian aid.
This was reported by the Ministry of Reintegration of Temporarily Occupied Territories, according to Ukrinform.
"Currently, 700 humanitarian organizations are working in our country, including international agencies, as well as local non-governmental organizations and charitable foundations. This is five times more than ten months ago. For more than half of humanitarian operators, main activities remain food assistance and providing basic necessities," the ministry said.
It is noted that since the beginning of the war, UN agencies and their partners have provided more than $3 billion in humanitarian aid. A third of these funds were paid in the form of cash assistance. More than 5 million Ukrainians received it.
As earlier reported, the Ministry of Reintegration of Temporarily Occupied Territories continues to actively cooperate with the humanitarian community in Ukraine. Joint projects of the Ministry with international and local humanitarian organizations are ongoing, including with UNHCR Ukraine, UNICEF, WFP, IOM, ICRC, and OCHA.
