Common sense means the refugees do not need loads of clothes sent as they simply can not carry much only the real essentials.
From the above article 'What they need is nappies, sanitary towels, blankets, really useful things that have a one time use - consumables I guess.' The locals might also be in need non perishable food to help feed the refugees and medicines that the country might be in danger of running out of.

We should be grateful for investigative journalism like this even though most will just turn their heads.

You working for free for RT Ray? You and they seem to be promulgating much the same line.

Incorrect Ray, incorrect.
See :- McKay S and Tenove C (2020) Disinformation as a Threat to Deliberative Democracy. Political
Research Quarterly.
The disinformation campaigns mounted by Russian agents ........... illustrate the use of anti-deliberative tactics including corrosive falsehoods, moral denigration, and unjustified inclusion. We further propose that these tactics might contribute to the system-level anti-deliberative properties of epistemic cynicism, techno-affective polarization, and pervasive inauthenticity. These harms undermine a polity’s capacity
to engage in communication characterized by the use of facts and logic, moral respect, and
democratic inclusion.

Try listening to a politician of integrity raising some very valid questions.

If you had, I'msure it would have been preferable to Nadine Dorries eating an ostrich's anus on live TV.

Top tip. (And I hope I'm wrong). Watch out for Kaliningrad.
