Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy decided to send firefighters to help Greece. He wrote about this on his Twitter page.
“I set the task for the government to assist Greece in overcoming the devastating fires that are raging in some parts of the country. On Friday, the Cabinet of Ministers must make a decision so that 100 of our experienced firefighters with the necessary equipment will soon go to the rescue, ”he said.
