Two Moroccan Planes Carrying Relief For Gazans Arrive In Egypt

Two Moroccan planes carrying humanitarian aid for populations in the Gaza strip arrived on Monday at the Egyptian military airport of Al-Ismailia (East).

This is the second consignment of relief ordered by HM King Mohammed VI to alleviate the sufferings of Palestinians who are facing a barbaric offensive by the Israeli army.

This humanitarian aid includes rice, powdered milk, medical equipment (wheelchairs, beds, crutches..) and hygiene products. 

Transporting this aid is made possible in collaboration between the Moroccan embassy in Cairo and the Egyptian Red Crescent which will hand it to its Palestinian counterpart via the Rafah border post.

Since Saturday, the Royal Armed Forces (FAR) have been airlifting the relief from the Kenitra military base to the Al-Ismailia airport in Egypt.
