AMMAN — The Jordanian Hashemite Charity Organisation (JHCO) on Monday dispatched a humanitarian aid convoy to Syria, delivering vital supplies, food and medical aid.

This convoy, which falls within Jordan's ongoing efforts to send aid to different areas of Syria, comes in line with Royal directives to support the Syrian people and alleviate their suffering amid the ongoing challenges they face, according to the Jordan News Agency, Petra.

Comprising around 300 tonnes of food and aid, the convoy was handed over to the Syrian Red Crescent at the Jaber border crossing, with Charge d'Affaires at the Jordanian embassy in Damascus Basel Kaied attending the handover ceremony.

Coordinator of the Syrian Red Crescent's Disaster Management Unit in Daraa Rafat Falouji expressed appreciation for Jordan and its people for their "quick and generous" support, noting that the 15 trucks of supplies will be distributed to Syrian governorates.
