On 6 May 2021, Poland delivered medical equipment and supplies, including face masks and protective clothing, to Bosnia and Herzegovina in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The donation was coordinated by NATO’s Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Centre (EADRCC) and Poland to respond to Bosnia and Herzegovina’s urgent requirement.
Provision, storage and transportation of the donation was funded by the Polish Armed Forces Operational Command, and the Polish Military Contingent in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The distribution of the protective equipment was supported by the Polish Embassy in Sarajevo, where the supplies were handed over to the Ministry of Security for further distribution.
