Ukrainian armed formations made a second attempt to deliver essential goods to the temporarily occupied Oleshky. They managed to hand over approximately 4 tonnes of cargo to the local population, which included food, medicines, and children's kits.
Several military units participated in the operation
As reported by Ukrainian Interior Minister Ivan Vyhyvskyi, fighters from the 11th Mykhailo Hrushevskyi National Guard Brigade and the 34th Kherson National Guard Regiment joined the night operation. Unmanned aerial vehicles were used to transport the cargo.
The measures were coordinated jointly with representatives of the 30th Marine Corps, the 34th Separate "Borysfen" Marine Brigade, and the 79th Border Detachment of the State Border Service of Ukraine.
Nearly 400 packages delivered
The military managed to deliver approximately 400 packages to the occupied city. According to Ivan Vyhyvskyi, every single package successfully reached its intended recipient.
The minister paid special attention to the work of the "Perun" UAV crew. While carrying out their mission, the military not only transported the humanitarian cargo but also rescued six animals that had ended up in the occupied territory.
Aid was collected by volunteers from across the country
The humanitarian cargo later delivered to Oleshky was collected by communities, educational institutions, philanthropists, and volunteers from various regions of Ukraine. Ivan Vyhyvskyi thanked everyone who participated in ensuring the operation, particularly the servicemen responsible for delivery, fire support, engineering escort, and logistics.
«Поки росіяни утримують жителів окупованих Олешок фактично в заручниках - без їжі, води та медикаментів, - наші підрозділи продовжують робити все можливе, щоб урятувати українців від голоду» (While the Russians are effectively holding the residents of occupied Oleshky as hostages - without food, water, and medicine - our units continue to do everything possible to save Ukrainians from hunger), the Interior Minister emphasised.
