Latvenergo and Sadales tīkls employees will travel to Ukraine on a voluntary basis to deliver all donated vehicles and bulky cargo to the Ukrainian military.
Latvenergo has donated a total of 158 used vehicles to improve the mobility of Ukrainian troops on the front lines, supporting both the movement of military units and the delivery of vital supplies.
