The European Commission has provided an additional €10 million to support Ukrainian refugees and host communities in Moldova as part of a larger package of €110 million, with €100 million to go to operations in Ukraine.

“As Russia’s war against Ukraine continues, the humanitarian situation in the country remains dire. The onset of winter poses further challenges to the already vulnerable communities impacted by the war”, the Commission said in a press release.

Since February 2022, the European Commission has allocated €843 million for humanitarian aid programs to help civilians affected by the war in Ukraine. This includes €785 million for Ukraine and €58 million for refugees that have fled to Moldova.
