The Red Cross Luxembourg’s Work on Site
Those Ukrainians who have fled, but also all those who have remained within Ukraine, urgently require humanitarian aid, and there are multiple needs: first aid materials, food, money, potable water, personal hygiene items, warm clothing, blankets, but also lanterns. «We will help the Ukrainian population, which is in a dramatic situation, wherever it needs help: families who are stranded within Ukraine, refugees at the borders and in Luxembourg,» Rémi Fabbri, director of humanitarian aid at the Red Cross Luxembourg, declared. For this reason, the organization has provided immediate funds of 150,000 € from its reserves, and on March 2, thanks to the generosity of donors living in Luxembourg, another 200,000 € could be added, supporting the Red Cross Ukraine in its efforts to procure needed goods and mainly to organize the humanitarian intervention where it is required. In addition, teams are on site to help evacuate thousands of people, taking care of the wounded and transporting them to hospitals. This past weekend, 2,000 persons were trained in first aid, and the number of people joining the Red Cross Ukraine is steadily growing. «This enables us to distribute food and first aid, to protect and evacuate children, their mothers and people with disabilities. We were also able to provide missing medical supplies for two hospitals in the Donetsk region, where the teams of the Red Cross Luxembourg are active, organizing the evacuation of wounded persons within the zone,» Rémi Fabbri continued.
