Klitschko brings another large batch of generators to Kyiv from Europe - German sister cities helped

The twin cities of Leipzig and Hamburg have already sent 72 generators to Kyiv this year. The mayor of the Ukrainian capital Vitali Klitschko has announced this.

"Since the beginning of the year, Kyiv has received a total of 72 generators of various capacities from the German twin cities of Leipzig and Hamburg. Today, the final part of the power sources from this batch of aid has arrived. This assistance is extremely important during the energy crisis caused by Russia's devastating attacks on critical infrastructure facilities," Vitali Klitschko said.

The mayor clarified that Leipzig, in cooperation with the German Federal Ministry of Economic Development, handed over 49 generators from 60 to 300 kW to Kyiv. And in cooperation with a foundation from Berlin, it sent 2 high-power generators - 280 and 710 kW. Kyiv also received 850 meters of cable from Leipzig to connect these power sources.

Hamburg handed over 21 generators from 60 to 110 kW and 290 meters of cable to Kyiv.

"I thank the twin cities for the support and humanitarian assistance they have been providing to the Ukrainian capital since the beginning of the full-scale war. By the way, Leipzig is one of the oldest twin cities of Kyiv. This year our cooperation will be 65 years old," Klitschko emphasized.

Earlier it was reported that after Vitali Klitschko appealed to international partners for help in overcoming the energy crisis, Kyiv received 218 generators from the EU, more than 200 from Poland, dozens of generators from France, Denmark and other countries.
