The UK government has pledged £220 million of aid, which includes £120 million of humanitarian assistance. Our humanitarian support will help partners stand up their response to the deteriorating humanitarian situation, creating a lifeline for Ukrainians with access to basic necessities. HMG will also match-fund the public's first £20 million of donations to the DEC Ukraine Humanitarian Appeal, our largest ever aid-match contribution.
