Ahram / Al-Qahera News – The first shipment of Egyptian medical and relief aid arrived at Beirut Airport Saturday as part of Egypt’s support for the Lebanese people in facing the current difficult circumstances, Al-Qahera News reported.
In a statement to Al-Qahera News from Beirut, the Egyptian Ambassador to Lebanon, Alaa Moussa, said the Egyptian aid plane carried 22 tons of medical and relief supplies, noting that more planes loaded with aid are expected to arrive in the coming days.
Moussa stressed that “what we are doing is an attempt to alleviate the burden of the Israeli aggression on the displaced.”
He added that Egypt has repeatedly warned against the conflict’s expansion to other areas, and it has indeed happened.
On Friday, the Egyptian Embassy in Lebanon announced that it arranged a special flight on Saturday for Egyptians in Lebanon who wish to return to Egypt.
