      Good thing they don’t have literal stockpiles of military rifles that dissappear off the ledger the second they crossed the border.

        Jonas Ohman is founder and CEO of Blue-Yellow, a Lithuania-based organization that has been meeting with and supplying frontline units with non-lethal military aid in Ukraine since the start of the conflict with Russia-backed separatists in 2014.

But he says the situation has significantly improved since then and a much larger quantity now gets where it’s supposed to go.
