Estonia gifted buses to Ukraine, the first five are going to Bucha
Estonia’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Transport Administration, and Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications are giving Ukraine more than 30 Iveco Crossway regular service buses to Ukraine to help support the restoration of transport services there, ERR reported. The first five buses were dispatched from Tallinn on June 13, 2022.
The first buses to be dispatched are destined for the Bucha area. In all, more than 30 buses are slated to be sent from Estonia to Ukraine, the Transport Administration said in a press release.
The buses are being sent in response to a request from Ukraine. Located just outside the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, the extensive destruction of Bucha by Russian forces received significant media attention from early April 2022, following the withdrawal of Russian troops from the region. The buses will go to help restore transport services in the area.
