A 40-foot articulated lorry has departed Northern Ireland for Poland this morning (Friday) loaded with aid to support those fleeing from Ukraine.
Organised by a group of Northern Ireland manufacturing companies, the aid includes 30 washing machines, 30 fridges, 80 mattresses, a pallet of medical supplies, two pallets of food, a forklift and two generators.
The load will be delivered to Polish refuge centre along the border with Ukraine early next week on a lorry provided by Antrim-based Bell Transport.
