More than
1,400 tons of humanitarian cargo were collected in Kazan for the cities of
Lisichansk and Rubezhny, supported by Tatarstan. Both businesses and citizens brought
goods to the collection points. This was announced at the Business Monday meeting
by the head of the Department of Social Policy Irina Smirnova.
“We are
conducting a work on collecting humanitarian aid for the supported Lisichansk,
- said Mayor Ilsur Metshin. – I am in touch with Yevgeny Varakin [Deputy Prime
Minister of Tatarstan] and our colleagues. Since the beginning of the year, two
convoys have been sent on request. Humanitarian aid collection points continue
to operate. What is important: our citizens, businesses, large and small,
private entrepreneurs, help out as they can. And we will definitely continue
this work and provide everything necessary.”
Another
humanitarian cargo was sent from Kazan in March. 30 tons of aid were collected
for residents of Lisichansk and Rubezhnoye: food, household chemicals,
medicines, building materials and more.
