Ostrava sending trams to Ukraine

Ostrava is sending twenty-five trams to the Ukrainian city of Konotop. The first six vehicles are to be transported to the Ukrainian border on Friday, the rest will follow in the coming days, a spokesperson for the municipality informed journalists. The trams were taken out of operation due to the city modernizing its public transport fleet but are still fully functional and will help keep Ukraine’s public transport in operation.  The city earlier dispatched ten Solaris diesel buses to Ukraine.
