In recovery from the devastating August floods, Slovenia also received assistance from other countries. On 6 August 2023, we requested assistance from the Emergency Response Coordination Centre (ERCC) under the EU mechanism, and from the Euro-Atlantic Disaster Response Coordination Centre (EADRCC) under NATO. Several countries provided assistance to Slovenia on a military-to-military and bilateral bases.

Through the EU Civil Protection Mechanism, assistance to Slovenia was provided by 11 countries – Austria, Bulgaria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, the Czech Republic, France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Slovakia, Sweden, while Spain responded through the NATO mechanism. Ukraine (with the support of ERCC) and Hungary provided assistance at a bilateral level, while Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Hungary, North Macedonia, Serbia, Montenegro, Israel, the USA and Bosnia and Herzegovina provided military-to-military assistance.

Eight countries (Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, France, Germany, Italy, Slovakia and Ukraine) contributed heavy construction equipment with a total of 30 excavators. Their units were quartered at Rečica ob Savinji, as they worked in the Upper Savinja Valley area cleaning watercourses, removing debris and more. The French unit was also engaged in the area of Prevalje, while the Italian unit was deployed in the area of Škofja Loka and Polhov Gradec. Through the EU mechanism, a total of 14 bridges were provided by six countries - Croatia, Germany, the Czech Republic, Poland, Italy and Sweden.

On October 1st, the third Italian bridge was delivered to Črna na Koroškem. The Italian Civil Protection Unit was building the bridge at end of October, and it was opened on October 30. The Italian unit then left Slovenia, and thus the international activities related to the August floods were completed. By the end of November, the third Swedish bridge will be built in cooperation with the Slovenian Army, namely in Črna na Koroškem.
