BEIRUT, Aug 7 (KUNA) -- The Kuwaiti Red Crescent Society (KRCS) declared on Friday donating 10 fully equipped ambulance vehicles and three mobile blood donation vehicles for the Lebanese Red Cross.
The head of the KRCS mission in Lebanon, Dr. Musaed Al-Enezi, said in a statement to KUNA that the society kick started its field activities in Beirut by donating respirators to Al-Wardiah Hospital in the district of Al-Ashrafiya.
The hospital was badly damaged in Tuesday's huge blast that ripped through Beirut Port and inflicted extensive damage throughout the capital.
The KRCS has also handed over to the hospital other medical kits and protective masks.
The society team will deliver more aid to other hospitals tomorrow Saturday, Al-Enezi revealed.
The KRCS has shipped in by air up to 36 tons of medical equipment, kits, medicines, surgery tools and supplies used for protection against the novel coronavirus. (end) ayb.rk
