UAE sends plane carrying 56 tons of medical supplies to Indonesia

Abu Dhabi (UNA-OIC) – The United Arab Emirates on Saturday sent a plane carrying 56 tons of medical supplies, including oxygen cylinders, respiratory equipment and COVID-19 vaccines, to Indonesia, in support of the national efforts to combat and contain the spread of the pandemic.

UAE Ambassador to Indonesia Abdullah Salem Al Dhaheri praised the strong UAE-Indonesia relations, which are reflected in continuous contacts, cross visits and growing cooperation between the two countries.

“Indonesia was among the first countries to receive medical aid from the UAE to combat COVID-19. In April 2020, the UAE sent to Indonesia a plane carrying 20 tons of medical supplies, to help healthcare workers to contain the spread of the pandemic,” he added.
