Russia to Deliver 27 Tonnes of Humanitarian Aid to Gaza Strip
MOSCOW (Sputnik) – After the Palestinian Hamas movement launched its latest attack on Israel on October 7. The Israeli government later announced that it had invoked Article 40 of the Basic Law, which means that the country is officially in a state of war, and launched a large-scale operation in response.
The Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations (EMERCOM) said early Thursday that its Il-76 plane will deliver 27 tonnes of humanitarian aid to the populations of the
Gaza Strip.
"Russia's EMERCOM will deliver 27 tonnes of humanitarian aid for the population of the Gaza Strip [...] Russian EMERCOM's Il-76 special aircraft has departed from Moscow Ramenskoye Airport to El Arish International Airport in Egypt," the ministry said on Telegram.
The ministry added that the assistance package, which included flour, sugar, rice and pasta, has been organized on the instructions of
Russian President Vladimir Putin and the Russian government.
Russia's humanitarian aid will be handed over to the Egyptian Red Crescent Society for further delivery to the Gaza Strip.
On Tuesday, a massive blast hit al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City. Over 471 people were killed, according to the Health Ministry of Gaza. Hamas blamed the explosion on an Israeli airstrike. The Israel Defense Forces said that the hospital was hit by a failed rocket launch by the
