Bulgaria and 15 other EU countries have offered assistance to Ukraine via the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, to address the immediate needs resulting from the destruction of the Kakhovka dam. The 16 EU countries are delivering water tankers, water pumps, boats, rescue equipment, generators, and other in-kind life-saving assistance to the affected areas.

Ukraine will also receive mobile water stations, each of which can produce 120,000 litres of clean water per day and is thus helping to solve one of the most urgent needs in the area – access to drinking water.

To further support humanitarian operations on the ground, the EU has also mobilised an additional €500,000 to meet the most pressing needs. Ukraine has received €200 million in humanitarian aid from the EU since the beginning of the year, the EC added.
