Kyiv received another 31 generators from the Warsaw city hall and community. In total, the city has already received 90 generators from the Polish capital. This was announced by Kyiv Mayor Vitali Klitschko.

"Kyiv received another 31 generators from the Warsaw city hall and community. The first batch of 59 power sources arrived in the Ukrainian capital last Friday. In total, the city received 90 generators from the Polish capital. Most of them are diesel, with different capacities - from 10 to 64 kW," Vitali Klitschko reported.

The mayor noted that the first batch of generators was immediately taken to the districts of Kyiv where there are problems with the restoration of heat supply.

"The first batch of generators was immediately taken to some districts of Kyiv to power the equipment of houses where there are problems with the restoration of heat supply. Let me remind you that the day before, I appealed to international partners to help Kyiv overcome the emergency situation. And the mayor of Kyiv's sister city, Warsaw, Rafał Trzaskowski, called me himself, offered help, and the Poles promptly sent the equipment. I thank the mayor of Warsaw and our Polish friends for this much-needed assistance in the context of the energy crisis," Vitali Klitschko noted.

The mayor of Kyiv reported that the city also received 130 generators from Polish volunteers, and a new batch is expected soon.

"Last week, Kyiv received the first batch from Poland - 130 generators of various capacities, the funds for which were collected by Polish volunteers. In 10 days, 60,000 Poles donated almost EUR 2 million. In the near future, we expect the next batch of generators purchased with charitable money from Poles," Vitali Klitschko said.
