The first Saudi relief plane left on Saturday from King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh, for Benina International Airport, in Benghazi, carrying 90 tons of food and shelter material to be distributed to those affected by the devastating floods in Libya.

The aid came in implementation of the directives of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and Prince Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime Minister.

A Riyadh-based King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) team that manages the distribution of relief aid in coordination with the Libyan Red Crescent is set to supervise the delivery of the items dispatched.

The aid is testimony to the noble humanitarian role played by the Kingdom’s leadership, which always stands by friendly countries in times of crises and hardships.
