Emergency Supplies for Hospitals in Eastern Ukraine
Already since the beginning of April, Cap Anamur has extended the delivery of urgently needed medicines and medical supplies to Kyiv. We now also supply hospitals in eastern Ukraine. These areas in particular are becoming increasingly difficult to reach and the supply situation is becoming more and more precarious.
Cap Anamur delivers medicines and medical equipment to hospitals in eastern Ukraine
For five months now, Cap Anamur has been working in Ukraine to support the medical care of the people. In doing so, we can rely on a well-functioning network of officials from the various city administrations. In close exchange, we receive the required demand for medicines and medical supplies, which we then deliver to the relevant areas.
So far, we have supplied regional hospitals in southern Ukraine as far as Vasylkiv, 30 kilometers from Kyiv. Since May, we have been slowly extending the supply radius to the eastern areas, close to the front.
Supporting medical care in Ukraine
In mid-June, we supplied the hospital in Dnipropetrovsk with a large shipment of medicines and medical equipment. In this delivery, we have established contact with other hospitals, 250 kilometers away and close to the front. These medical facilities in Kramatorsk and Pokrovské are almost cut off from supplies due to the ongoing warfare and security situation.
At the beginning of July, we were then able to transport our relief supplies to these locations as well. This will allow us to support the operation of these hospitals near the front lines. For several weeks now, severely injured people have been brought there directly from the combat zone.
Our emergency aid in Ukraine so far
So far, we are still supporting the women and children who fled to Novoselytsia. We regularly supply the hospitals in southern Ukraine with the materials they need. The regional hospital in Vasylkiv was supplied with medicines and consumables as well as surgical equipment. Other deliveries of medicines went to Odessa and, among others, to the eastern Ukrainian cities of Chernihiv, Kharkiv and, most recently, Dnipropetrovsk.
