The Red Cross opened a social shop for Ukrainian refugees in the capital.

At the "Humanity Concept Store", located in the Roman Square area, refugees receive free food, hygiene products and clothing, explained the General Director of the Romanian Red Cross organization, Ioan Silviu Lefter:

Ioan Silviu Lefter: Ukrainian citizens come to the store and they choose the products they need by themselves. The quantities are calculated based on the number of people, as follows: for a family of three people, they will pick up 12 kilograms of food, two kilograms of hygiene products and three kilograms of clothes. For each additional member, two kilograms of food are added, respectively one kilogram of hygiene products and one kilogram of clothes.

Producer: The Red Cross also continues the "Food Bank" program for social cases in Romania, RRA reporter Angela Cerven recalls.
