The Russian Emergencies Ministry today announced the sending of 27 tons of humanitarian aid to Egypt, in order to deliver it to the residents of the besieged Gaza Strip.

The Ministry said in a statement today: “A plane belonging to the ministry took off from Ramenskoe Airport near the capital, Moscow, towards Al-Arish Airport in Egypt,” adding: “This aid will be delivered to representatives of the Egyptian Red Crescent Society to be sent to the Palestinians in Gaza Strip.”
