The UAE sends urgent medical supplies to Senegal
Today, the United Arab Emirates sent a plane of medical supplies to Senegal, to contribute to alleviating the repercussions of the fire that broke out in the neonatal department of Mam Abdulaziz C. Dabach Hospital in the city of Tifwani, north of the Senegalese capital, "Dakar", which resulted in the death of 11 infants.
The plane carries on board medical supplies for maternity and pediatric departments, beds, equipment for operating rooms and midwifery groups, medicines and first aid kits.
Sultan Ali Al Harbi, the country's ambassador to Senegal, said that sending this aid today is a reflection of the strong relations between the UAE and the Republic of Senegal, which were rooted in the mid-seventies of the last century in many economic and development fields.
He pointed out the keenness of the wise Emirati leadership to assist all brotherly and friendly countries and enhance their capabilities in facing humanitarian crises and mitigating the repercussions resulting from them.
