The European Commission has allocated €110 million in humanitarian aid to Ukraine, addressing the dire humanitarian situation due to Russia’s ongoing war. The funding will help provide essential services such as cash assistance, food, water, shelter, healthcare, psychosocial support, and protection. The EU has also prioritised emergency energy support by deploying 84 power generators from its rescEU strategic reserves.
Since February 2022, the Commission has allocated €843 million for humanitarian aid programs, including €785 million for Ukraine and €58 million for refugees who have fled to Moldova. The EU has mobilised all available resources to provide emergency assistance to Ukraine via the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, with 97,000 tonnes of assistance delivered so far. EU-funded humanitarian assistance is provided in line with humanitarian principles of humanity, neutrality, impartiality, and independence, and is delivered through UN humanitarian agencies, non-governmental organisations, the International Committee of the Red Cross, and local aid organisations.
