ABU DHABI – The United Arab Emirates announced today that it is sending some 2,500 household generators to civilians affected by the ongoing crisis in Ukraine, which has disrupted energy infrastructure and caused blackouts, in order to help them survive the harsh winter.
The aid includes 2,500 domestic generators, each with an output between 3.5 and 8 kilowatts. These generators will help civilians get some of the electricity they need, which will help alleviate difficult living conditions for families affected by the crisis.
Reem bint Ibrahim Al Hashemy, Minister of State for International Cooperation, said that this assistance to Ukraine stems from the UAE’s belief in the importance of human solidarity, especially in conflict situations, and is part of the country’s ongoing efforts to mitigate the humanitarian impact on Ukraine crisis.
The UAE will deliver around 1,200 domestic generators to the Polish capital Warsaw today and will transfer the rest by January next year.
The support comes from the UAE’s distribution of $100 million in humanitarian relief aid to civilians affected by the crisis in Ukraine.
In response to the UN Ukrainian Emergency Appeal and Regional Refugee Response to the Ukrainian Situation, the UAE has taken the initiative since the beginning of the crisis to alleviate the suffering of those affected by sending 8 aircraft carrying 360 tons of food, medical aid and Ukrainian refugees from Poland, Moldova and Bulgaria ambulance.
