Under royal directives, a Royal Jordanian Air Force C-130 aircraft departed for Lebanon on Wednesday, following yesterday’s events.

The plane, sent by the Jordanian Armed Forces (JAF) in coordination with the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization, is carrying food, medical supplies, and relief materials – the statement by the JAF said.

The aid is intended to support Lebanon's healthcare sector and help the country recover from the recent incident.

“This gesture reflects the deep ties and brotherly bonds between the two nations and underscores the Kingdom of Jordan’s commitment to providing support and assistance to its Lebanese brothers in these challenging times,” the statement added.
