The Russian attack on Lviv in Western Ukraine Monday comes just as humanitarian aid from the Bay Area arrived in the city last week.
Supplies donated to the group Hearts from Ukraine arrived from San Jose April 12th and included more than 130 boxes of food, hygiene products, and medical supplies that were immediately sent to orphanages and hospitals that had requested the items.
"It was an orphanage there of 11,000 children and while we were in route, that city got occupied by Russian forces. It was no longer accessible," said Tarasov. United Nations Undersecretary-General Martin Griffiths who serves as U.N. Chief of Humanitarian Aid called for an immediate and sustained ceasefire Monday in order to establish safe corridors to get aid into the war zones and evacuate civilians.
The Bay Area aid group Nova Ukraine says the devastation of hospitals has created desperate need for medical equipment.
