War-ravaged Ukraine received pledges for $6.5 billion more in humanitarian aid Thursday at an international donor's conference in Warsaw that sought to get Ukrainians urgent help while still planning for the country's post-war reconstruction.
Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki, a co-host of the conference, said $6.5 billion was raised in donations from countries and businesses, many of whom attended in person and others who made their pledges remotely. His co-host, Sweden's Prime Minister Magdalena Andersson, said the sum exceeded their expectations.
