Turkiye has sent two cargo planes to Egypt carrying medical equipment and supplies for Gaza, Health Minister Fahrettin Koca said, adding two more aircraft would be sent with more supplies.
In a post on X, formerly Twitter, Koca said the cargo planes carried medicine, generators, medical supplies, incubators for babies, phototherapy machinery, diapers and baby food.
Among the medical supplies, he said, were emergency response equipment, operating tables, ventilators, ultrasound machines, and orthopaedic supplies for those wounded in the fighting.
“The four planes of health support that are being planned for Gaza as aid will be sent from Egypt to Gaza via highways.”
