Azerbaijan has sent Ukraine another shipment of humanitarian aid in the form of energy equipment needed to restore and maintain the power grid during the heating season, according to the Embassy of Ukraine in the Republic of Azerbaijan.
The shipment includes high-capacity transformers, 186 km of electrical cables, and other equipment for restoring the energy infrastructure.
In total, the cargo will be delivered to Ukraine by ten heavy-duty trucks.
Yuriy Gusev, Ukraine’s Ambassador to Azerbaijan, thanked Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, the country’s government, and the Azerbaijani people for their support of Ukraine.
“This aid is a practical demonstration of solidarity and the Ukrainian-Azerbaijani strategic partnership, as well as a significant contribution to strengthening the resilience of our power grid amid ongoing full-scale Russian aggression,” Gusev stated.
According to him, the equipment is particularly important for Ukraine in the run-up to and during the heating season.
Azerbaijan has previously sent humanitarian aid to Ukraine on multiple occasions, including equipment to restore energy infrastructure damaged as a result of hostilities.
