A planeload of 20 tons of medicines and medical supplies, destined for hospitals in Iraq, took off from Kuwait airport on Wednesday, Kuwait Red Crescent Society said.
The plane is part of an air bridge of relief supplies, ordered by the Kuwaiti leadership to tangibly manifest Kuwait’s solidarity with the “brothers in Iraq,” said Dr. Hilal Al-Sayer, the KRCS’s Chairman, in a press statement.
His Highness the Amir has ordered that the relief supplies be delivered rapidly to the “Iraqi brothers namely the displaced,” he said noting that His Highness Sheikh Sabah personally sympathizes with the relocated Iraqis who have been deprived of their homes and forced to live in hard conditions.
Up to 200 tons of relief supplies will be sent to Iraq as part of the humanitarian bridge in the coming days, Dr. Al-Sayer said, re-affirming keenness to heed His Highness the Amir’s instructions and relieve peoples, suffering in various corners of the world./End/
