Latvia to donate computers and vehicles to Ukraine

Latvia is providing further support to Ukraine by donating used computer equipment and vehicles. The Internal Security Bureau (IDB) has decided to transfer 39 "Tempest" computers and 40 monitors to Ukraine, responding to a request from the S.P. Koroļova Zhytomyr Military Institute of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense.

This equipment was originally purchased between 2016 and 2018. The IDB no longer requires these specific computers and monitors because they have acquired newer replacements to ensure the continued functionality of their operations. The donation is part of Latvia's ongoing efforts to assist Ukraine amidst its ongoing conflict.

In addition to the computer hardware, Latvia will also send 21 state-owned vehicles to Ukraine. The estimated total value of these vehicles is 49,000 euros. The transfer of these vehicles will be facilitated by the non-governmental organizations "Agendum," "Entrepreneurs for Peace," and "Your Friends."

The donated vehicles are intended for various Ukrainian military and governmental units. These include units of the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense, units of the National Guard of Ukraine, the Military Administration of Priluki district in Chernihiv Oblast, the Military Administration of Novovorontsovka in Kherson Oblast, the Sokilnyky outpatient clinic, and the Chernihiv City Council.
