Jordan on Monday dispatched a cargo plane loaded with humanitarian aid for the victims of the Feb. 6 twin earthquakes that killed thousands in Türkiye.
The cargo plane carries 14 tons of foodstuffs for the quake victims, the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization (JHCO) said in a statement.
"We continue to provide aid to those affected by the devastating earthquake,” JHCO Secretary-General Hussein Shibli said.
“The collected donations are sent to the quake victims in coordination with the authorities, through the Jordanian Armed Forces and the Royal Air Force,” he added.
Jordan has so far sent 14 planes loaded with humanitarian aid to Türkiye since the earthquake disaster.
More than 50,000 people were killed and over 107,200 injured in two powerful earthquakes that rocked southern Türkiye on Feb. 6, according to the latest official figures.
The 7.7 and 7.6 magnitude earthquakes affected more than 13 million people across 11 provinces, including Kahramanmaras, Adana, Adiyaman, Diyarbakir, Gaziantep, Hatay, Kilis, Malatya, Osmaniye, Elazig, and Sanliurfa.
