Estonia will donate 12 buses to the Zhytomyr region of Ukraine to restore transport links, the Estonian Foreign Ministry said in a statement.

Iveco Irisbus buses previously served regular passenger lines in Estonia.

Three buses left for Zhytomyr on Saturday. 9 more will go there next week.

Foreign Minister Urmas Reinsalu explained that Estonia is committed to offering Ukraine all-around support, including helping them to restore their daily lives despite Russia's ongoing war.

I hope that these buses will help residents of the Zhytomyr region safely reach their destination.

In June, Estonia sent 5 similar used buses to Bucha.

Early this summer, Estonia responded to Ukraine's call to select focus regions for reconstruction assistance. Estonia chose the Zhytomyr region. Buses depart in response to a request from Zhytomyr.

I am glad that, in cooperation with several agencies and companies, we can offer practical assistance with the buses that left today, as this is urgently needed.
