Latvian state police send vehicles and minibuses to Ukraine

Latvia’s State Police have sent another batch of cars and minibuses to Ukraine to support the country’s security and defence sector.

As reported by the Embassy of Ukraine in Latvia, 

On 22 September, Ukraine’s ambassador to Latvia Anatolii Kutsevol joined the handover of a new convoy of vehicles and minibuses for Ukraine’s security and defence sector. 

In total, Latvia has sent 32 vehicles, almost half of which are former police cars that were scheduled for replacement.

Latvia's vehicle shipment to Ukraine also includes humanitarian aid: children’s clothes, school supplies and other essentials to support children and Ukrainian educational institutions. The Latvian Basketball Association has also contributed, providing sports equipment for Ukrainian children and young people.

Authorities plan to direct the aid to the regions of Ukraine that have suffered the most – Donetsk and Kharkiv oblasts.
