The UAE has dispatched an aircraft to the Comoros carrying 300,000 COVID-19 vaccine doses and other medical supplies to facilitate the vaccination process.
The initiative will benefit a large segment of the island nation's population, especially the elderly and those with chronic diseases.
"In the past three months, the UAE has sent three aircraft loaded with 21.7 tonnes of medical supplies to the country, in addition to an aircraft in April 2021 loaded with 43 tonnes of food aid," said Saeed Mohammed Al Maqbali, UAE Ambassador to Comoros.
Since the beginning of the pandemic, the UAE has provided over 2,250 tonnes of aid to more than 136 countries.
