Aid organization: Better managing internal migration in Ukraine

“More effective care for the five million internally displaced people in the country is essential” – How Luftfahrt ohne Grenzen/Wings of Help e.V. also wants to decrease the costs for Germany

Luftfahrt ohne Grenzen/Wings of Help (LOG/WoH) is one of the few humanitarian organizations that has been organizing truck convoys to Ukraine with regular aid deliveries since the start of the war in 2022 until today. They bring clothing, food, pharmaceuticals and even a mobile hospital into the country, which, according to reliable Western calculations, is about 15 percent occupied by Russia. The situation in Ukraine itself has now changed noticeably for LOG/WoH: The organization based at Frankfurt Airport is increasingly providing care for internally displaced people. Around five million Ukrainians and their families have left the eastern part of the country and are now living in alternative accommodation in western Ukraine, relying on aid supplies from Western Europe. Reason: The Ukrainian state only helps internally displaced people from the eastern provinces with the equivalent of 60 euros per month. In comparison, the German state pays almost 100 times more per month for each migrant from Ukraine when all benefits are added together.

The executive board of LOG/WoH with Frank Franke and Ralf Bülter has just personally accompanied another aid delivery to Uschgorod, consisting of five semi-trailers (including two trucks with child food). The Presidium urgently recommends “to decrease containing the clearly visible flow of refugees from the country to Germany by essentially and better managing the growing number of internal refugees who ultimately want to stay in their homeland. This has to be done by the Ukrainian state and must also provide immediate financial help to the millions of people on the run.” At the same time, LOG/WoH as a humanitarian organization wants to do everything it can to provide mothers and children in particular with the most important things for life. To this end, LOG/WoH has now sent 17 convoys with over 120 trucks, delivery vans and truck-trailers with 3,000 tons of goods to Ukraine – as of May 2024. LOG/WoH is continuing this unique aid bridge, which is supported by committed companies in Germany and private individuals, unabated this year.

Commemoration of the genocide of the Yazidis

Liberation ten years ago – Celebration in Stuttgart – Rapid aid from LOG/WoH by wide-bodied aircraft to the north of Iraq

For Luftfahrt ohne Grenzen / Wings of Help (LOG/WoH), the tenth anniversary of the Yazidi genocide was a very special day: at a commemoration ceremony in Stuttgart, the Nobel Peace Prize winner and human rights activist Nadia Murad and Baden-Württemberg’s Minister President Winfrid Kretschmann unveiled a sculpture that will be traveling through Europe in the coming months. Together with a documentary, this exhibition commemorates the murder, expulsion and violence against the Yazidi people in the northern Iraqi Sinjar Mountains where over 10,000 people fell victim to the IS terror militia. Nobel Peace Prize winner Nadia Murad thanked the state of Baden-Württemberg for its special reception program for Yazidi refugees since 2014/2015.

At the time, LOG/WoH quickly recognized the great need of the people in the Sinjar Mountains and immediately after the liberation of the Yazidis, who had been defenseless against IS attacks for months, organized a wide-bodied aircraft full of relief supplies to Erbil Airport in northern Kurdistan. Just a few hours later, six 40-ton articulated lorries loaded with urgently needed relief supplies set off from Erbil Airport towards the Sinjar Mountains. At the exhibition opening in Stuttgart, Nadia Murad also thanked LOG/WoH President Frank Franke and Board Member Marie-Luise Thüne once again for the rapid and unprecedented relief operation for her traumatized people. LOG/WoH continues to support the Yazidis today, who are housed in refugee camps in northern Iraq.
