YEREVAN. – Following an agreement between the defense ministries of Armenia and Russia, and upon instruction by the President of Armenia, another consignment of humanitarian aid, which is intended for the residents who have suffered from the Syrian conflict, on Friday was sent to Syria, on behalf of Armenia.

The objective of this assistance is to enhance the resilience of the people and Armenian community of Syria.

This consignment of humanitarian aid—which comprises about 20 tons of food, food items, clothing, and sleeping bags—was sent to Syria from Erebuni Airport in Armenia’s capital city of Yerevan, and on board a Russian Air Force plane.

“To the brotherly people of Syria, with warm wishes for peace from Armenia,” is written on this humanitarian cargo.
