According to Viktor Nikita, the Uzbek partners sent medicines, individual first aid kits, long-term storage products and other items.

"The cargo arrived by plane, and then was delivered to Zakarpathia. This proves once again the effectiveness of the logistics we have set up in a short period of time during a state of war. Humanitarian aid will be sent to the hot spots immediately." – the head of Regional Military Administration said.
