Turkmenistan’s government has dispatched 125 tons of humanitarian aid to Afghanistan.
The consignment includes medicines and medical supplies, food and textile products, Turkmen foreign ministry said in a statement.
As part of this humanitarian action, a group of medical workers of the Ministry of Health and Medical Industry of Turkmenistan has been sent to provide medical and advisory assistance at the maternity hospital built by Turkmenistan in 2016 in the village of Turgundi in Herat province, the statement said.
“This comprehensive humanitarian action, based on the primordially humanistic traditions and principles of the Turkmen people, is a continuation of the consistent activities of the Turkmen state to support Afghanistan for many years, and also serves to further develop traditionally friendly, fraternal and good neighborly relations between the Turkmen and Afghan peoples,” the statement added.
