UAF under-received humanitarian aid for 170 million UAH – Ministry of Defense.


The Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, together with the State Customs Service, identified potential risks of illegal use of humanitarian aid amounting to 171.78 million hryvnias. This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense.
According to the State Customs Service, the following passed under customs control:
- 424 units of vehicles
- 476.23 tons of goods of various names without indicating the cost
- 6.2 tons of food and plastic granules
However, the Ministry of Defense did not confirm the receipt of these items by the military. The agency turned to law enforcement agencies to check the legality of the actions of officials who may have signs of illegal enrichment and abuse of official position. The investigation is ongoing.
Oleksandr Tytkovskyi, Director of the Internal Audit Department of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, noted that cooperation between agencies helps not only to quickly receive humanitarian aid, but also to identify and prevent customs violations.
He also noted: "Our task is to ensure that every element of aid, from a thermal imager to a vehicle, reaches our defenders on the front line. We will constantly improve control and reporting for the effective use of humanitarian aid."
Earlier, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine concluded two defense contracts with Ukrainian manufacturers for almost 5 billion hryvnias.
