Humanitarian aid was collected in Greece with the assistance of the Consulate of Ukraine in Thessaloniki headed by Consul Vadym Sabluk, Honorary Consul of Ukraine in Komotini – Representative of the Ukrainian Chamber of Commerce in Greece Dimitrios Dimitriadis, City Hall, and the Dzherelo Ukrainian community in Northern Greece.

The Commander added that important assistance was provided by the International Association for Support of Ukraine and the Association of International Road Carriers of Ukraine.

Russia’s large-scale invasion of Ukraine has been going on since February 24. The aggressor shells and destroys key infrastructure, residential areas of Ukrainian cities, towns, and villages using artillery, multiple-launch rocket systems, and ballistic missiles.
