receiving urgent requests from individuals and organizations based in
the conflict zone in the eastern Ukrainian regions, where hostilities
led to human casualties and multiple injuries, asking to provide
immediate humanitarian aid, primarily medications and medicinal drugs,”
the ministry said on its website.

side hopes for the swiftest possible reply from the Ukrainian side to
this request,” the Russian Foreign Ministry said.
