Estonia will help internally displaced people (IDPs) prepare for the coming winter in Ukraine after Russia destroyed around 80 percent of the country's energy infrastructure, APA reports citing ERR News.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs gave €513,660 to its strategic humanitarian aid partners Mondo and the Estonian Refugee Council which are working in Ukraine.
Mondo will receive €235,921 to repair and insulate a shelter for IDPs in Kharkiv, to provide heating devices, solid fuel and generators to 17 shelters in the Kharkiv and Dnipropetrovsk oblasts.
The NGO will also provide medicines, diapers, and formula to a shelter for Ukrainian refugees in Georgia.
The €277,739 allocated to the Estonian Refugee Council will be given as financial aid to Ukraine's civilians and IDPs, to cover the winter maintenance costs of animal keepers and to cover the winter costs of Ukrainian refugees in Georgia.
