The Ministry of the Interior stated that assistance was sent via the Serbian emergency situations department.
Heavy snowfall and snow storms left over 50,000 people without electricity, and with communication channels in tatters.
The generators were put at the department's disposal by the Nis-based Serbian-Russian humanitarian centre.
The Serbian emergency situations department had previously also offered assistance to countries in the region during various natural disasters, in the form of rescue units, equipment, machinery, in an effort to help the affected people.
