According to the interim report, three quarters of the funds was spent in Ukraine.

Assistance ranged from providing temporary housing, medicine, food, clean drinking water, and hygiene kits, to medical and psychogical assistance.

Aid organizations report that they have done “everything possible” to prepare Ukrainians for a harsh winter, as Russian missile strikes on energy infrastructure have led to pronged power outages, which deprived many Ukrainians of access to electricity, water, and heating.

As Ukrinform reported earlier, last year in the Netherlands, in just three days, the Giro555 charity platform clected EUR 9.8 million to help Ukrainians affected by Russian aggression.
