"The situation of civilians in Ukraine is harder by each passing day, humanitarian needs increase, thousands of persons need food, water, bedding, and medicine," shows a release sent on Thursday to AGERPRES.
The humanitarian convoy organized by the Romanian Red Cross will be formed of five tractor-trailers transporting 120 tons of food, personal hygiene items, bedding, medicine and pet food.
The five trucks are leaving from different areas of the country - Bucharest, Cluj, Salaj and Sibiu - and will meet at the Siret Border Crossing Point from where they will leave together towards the Ukrainian Red Cross in Cernauti.
