Spare breathing apparatus is being shipped from Jersey to help with aid efforts in Ukraine.
200 oxygen concentrators were left over from the island's response to the coronavirus pandemic.
They have been donated by Health & Community Services and shipped to Poland by Jersey Post, where they will then be transported across the Ukrainian border.
Jersey Overseas Aid's partner agency, Crown Agents, will then deliver the breathing apparatus to medical teams and hospitals inside Ukrainian cities under siege by Russia.
Deputy Carolyn Labey, the island's International Development Minister, says it's a great example of islanders pulling together for a good cause:
"This collaboration between Jersey Post, the Health and Community Services Department and Jersey Overseas Aid is Jersey at its best.
Like the public’s extraordinary donations of goods and now money to the Bailiff’s Appeal, we see the Island pulling together to help the innocent civilians caught up in Russia’s barbaric war."
Jersey Post's CEO, Tim Brown, says the company stands by the people of Ukraine and had 'no hesitation' in offering its delivery network to get the life-saving equipment where it needs to be 'as quickly as possible'.
