Operation Aid

Operation Aid
Operation Aid. From their website: We have already transferred 30 ambulances and evacuation vehicles from Sweden to Ukraine. The cars have been filled with medical equipment and driven down to Ukraine to save lives. We have both civilian and front-line ambulances and some of them are manned by our own staff. An ambulance costs about SEK 35.000 a month to run. Sometimes there are also costs for repairs and maintenance. Over the course of a month, it manages to transport hundreds of injured people to the right healthcare facility. Spotted the ambulance at Norrmalmstorg. That is the place by the way where the Stockholm syndrome came to be, back in the 1970s, but that is another story.

I just saw an online photo of Ukrainian prisoner of war released by Russia basically starved to skin and bones.

Ukraine will continue to need help for a long, long time.
