Saudi Arabia has sent Ukraine 94 million euros ($100 million) in humanitarian aid, including much-needed generators, after waves of Russian missile strikes on power generation facilities.
“Among the relief goods were 135 powerful generators with 20 to 400 kilowatts of power, thermal blankets and hygiene materials,” the head of Ukraine’s presidential office, Andriy Yermak, wrote on his Telegram channel. Kyiv is extremely grateful for the aid, he said.
According to Yermak, the goods that arrived in the country on three transport planes will be distributed to six Ukrainian regions where they will benefit thousands of people.
“The humanitarian aid is a sign of the solidarity and support that exists between our states,” Yermak added.
Saudi aid also has great symbolic significance, as Kyiv and its Western allies compete with Moscow for support in other parts of the world, including the Middle East.
