UK announces new winter aid package for Ukraine worth over $500 mln
The UK will allocate a new winter aid package to Ukraine in the amount of more than half a billion dollars, the British government website reported on Thursday, October 5.
"New aid allocations for Ukraine announced today include GBP 34 million (over $41 million) for the UN and charities providing shelter and warm winter clothing," the report notes.
In addition, GBP 10 million (more than $12 million) will be allocated to restore power to households following Russian attacks on Ukraine's critical energy infrastructure.
A fourth UK loan guarantee of $500 million through the World Bank is also reported. This funding should ensure that the Ukrainian government can provide vital winter payments to three million households.
