This aid plane is the fourth to be sent by the UAE to Iran since March.

“The UAE’s efforts to operate numerous emergency medical flights to assist Iran’s medical sector reflect the authenticity of the UAE’s humanitarian approach and the spirit of tolerance and solidarity embedded in UAE policies. The UAE has long stood with the leadership and peoples of other countries in difficult times, supporting them and helping save their lives without regard to any other considerations,” said Saif Al Zaabi, UAE Ambassador to the Islamic Republic of Iran.
