Collection of a second consignment of humanitarian aid for the Ukrainian people has started in Georgia's regions. This decision by the Prime Minister of Georgia is implemented jointly, with engagement from State Representatives and the Government's Regional Liaison Department.

Together with state institutions, businesses and the civil sector are involved in the process of collection.
Stage two has secured the collection of 120 tons of goods from across Georgia, including 90 tons from the regions. The consignment consists mostly of medical items, non-perishable products, and essential goods.

At this stage, said goods have been stored at Georgian Post's terminals in the regions of Eastern Georgia, to be loaded on trucks and, after completing relevant procedures, sent to Ukraine by land.

As for mobilizing goods in Western Georgia, the process continues to be ready for shipment to Ukraine by the end of this week.

The foregoing marks the second stage in supplying Ukraine with humanitarian aid from Georgia's regions. Notably, over 150 tons of humanitarian cargo, collected in Georgia's regions, was shipped a few days ago to aid the Ukrainian people. Transportation-related logistics issues are managed by Georgian Post.
