Tomovski: About 21 million denars have been spent so far on the victims in Kocani, assistance will continue
The government allocated the starting 30 million denars from the state budget reserves, as initial assistance and support for the injured in the fire in Kocani, intended for transporting 201 patients to hospitals abroad and returning to the country, as well as for the stay of their loved ones who were accompanied by our Director of the Service and General.
