The goods to be delivered to Ukraine will include 19 power plants, blood transfusion equipment, about 80,000 protective masks, hand sanitizers and more than 50,000 canned meat and fish.

Last year, Moldova sent three batches of humanitarian aid to Ukraine - in February, April, and September. The aid was sent mainly for the needs of the Ukrainian army. Also in June 2023, Moldova sent eight trucks of humanitarian aid worth 200 thousand euros to overcome the environmental and humanitarian consequences caused by the destruction of the Kakhovka dam.
