50 Mass Casualty First Aid Kits: Ukrainian Red Cross Strengthens Ukrzaliznytsia Emergency Repair Trains

The Ukrainian Red Cross, in cooperation with Ukrzaliznytsia (Ukrainian Railways), has handed over 50 mass casualty first aid kits to equip emergency repair trains deployed to respond to the aftermath of large-scale attacks, shelling, and other emergencies.

Each kit is designed to provide first aid for up to 50 people, meaning that together they can support as many as 2,500 individuals in the crucial minutes following an emergency.

“Supporting critical services is one of our priorities. Ukrzaliznytsia has unique experience operating amid a full-scale war and constant attacks. It is important for us to join efforts to ensure that assistance reaches those who need it most as quickly as possible,” said Yevhenii Katykhin, Head of the Transport and Logistics Department at the Ukrainian Red Cross.

Ukrzaliznytsia emergency repair trains operate where they are needed most — in areas affected by shelling or immediately after attacks, when rapid response is required to restore damaged infrastructure and support affected communities.

Together, we continue working to ensure that help is always close at hand, especially when it is needed most.
