France to send aid to Ukraine 'within next few hours', says Macron
President Emmanuel Macron on Wednesday said France would send aid to Ukraine "within the next few hours" after he had a phone conversation with his Ukrainian counterpart, AFP reports.
"France condemns this atrocious act, which is endangering populations. Within the next few hours, we will send aid to meet immediate needs," Macron wrote on Twitter.
“I expressed to President Zelensky my solidarity with the Ukrainian people after the attack on the Kakhovka dam. France condemns this atrocious act, which is endangering populations. Within the next few hours, we will send aid to meet immediate needs” wrote Macron.
The World Bank will support Ukraine by conducting a rapid assessment of damage and needs after Tuesday's destruction of a huge hydroelectric dam on the front lines between Russian and Ukrainian forces, a top bank official said on Wednesday.
