North Macedonia has put 100 new ambulances into service, expanding the fleet available to emergency medical crews across the country. The vehicles were formally presented in the parking lot of the Boris Trajkovski Sports Center in Skopje. Prime Minister Hristijan Mickoski said he hopes the ambulances will be needed as infrequently as possible. His statement focused attention on preserving the capacity of the service for situations that require emergency transport. Authorities are also negotiating for the purchase of 50 additional vehicles. If the talks succeed, those ambulances are scheduled to arrive in 2027. Until then, the first 100 form the active addition to the national fleet.
