The Odesa Branch of the SE «Ukrainian Sea Ports Authority» (SE “USPA”) has received an ambulance from the charitable organization “Apostleship of the Sea” ‒ Stella Maris
Due to the consequences of enemy shelling and damage to the port’s critical infrastructure, the need for rapid response to emergencies has significantly increased. The new emergency vehicle will enable faster and more efficient medical assistance for port employees and for the crews of vessels moored at the Odesa port berths.
The donation of the ambulance took place within the framework of the “Safety and Protection District. North Black Sea” project, which Stella Maris is implementing in the ports of the Odesa region.
The Odesa Sea Port Authority extends its sincere gratitude to Stella Maris and to its director - Fr. Oleksandr Smerechynskyi, for their support and contribution to enhancing safety in the port.
