On July 16, 2020, the Chinese city of Yiwu donated 5.4 tons of anti-epidemic supplies to the Sverdlovsk Region (Yekaterinburg) of Russia. The supplies included 600,000 single-use medical masks and 8,000 single-use lab coats. The supplies were distributed to the regional clinical neuropsychiatric hospital where they will then be sent to medical institutions in the region for COVID-19 treatment and prevention. The monetary value of this donation is unknown. This donation was reportedly provided in response to a charity event held by Andrey Simanovsky who had sent anti-epidemic aid to China in February 2020.
