This is evidenced by the results of internal audits from March to July 2024.
The Ministry of Defense and the State Customs Service have established that the military did not receive humanitarian aid worth more than UAH 170 million.
This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense.
“Based on the results of joint internal audits from March to July 2024, the Ministry of Defense, in cooperation with the State Customs Service, identified potential risks of illegal use of humanitarian aid in the amount of UAH 171.78 million,” the report says.
In particular, according to the State Customs Service, the following passed through customs control for the needs of the Armed Forces:
- 424 units of vehicles
- 476.23 tons of goods of various names without indicating the value
- 6.2 tons of food products and plastic granules
However, the department was unable to confirm that military units received this aid.
“The Ministry of Defense sent the relevant notifications to law enforcement agencies to assess the legality of the actions of individual officials on the grounds of illegal enrichment, misappropriation of property and abuse of office,” the report says.
An investigation into these facts is ongoing.
As reported, in early August, the Cabinet of Ministers adopted a resolution to regulate the issue of state registration of vehicles imported into the customs territory of Ukraine as humanitarian aid.
