Aid to Jordan

摘要

The Airbus Corporate Foundation and the Red Cross/Red Crescent have sent medical aid to Syrian refugees in Jordan onboard the manufacturer's A340-600 test aircraft. The flight landed at Amman in August with 25 tonnes of medical equipment and supplies, as well as medical and logistics personnel. It was originally loaded in Helsinki by the Finnish Red Cross, with help from Finnair Cargo. These supplies will enable the delivery of medical services in a new Syrian refugee camp currently being set up in Azraq, 62 miles (100km) east of Amman, which will accommodate up to 130,000 people.
