AMMAN — Mohammad Al Hadid, President of Jordan's National Red Crescent Society (IFRC), alongside IFRC’s executive committee members, received Crown Princess Margareta of Romania, alongside Romania’s ambassador and an accompanying delegation, the Jordanian News Agency, Petra, reported.

During the meeting, Hadid outlined IFRC's history and humanitarian activities that it carries out locally, regionally and internationally, alongside its mission that welcomed Syrian refugees ever since the crisis began in 2011. 

Crown Princess Margareta visited the Jordanian Red Crescent Hospital, where she was briefed about the hospital’s humanitarian role in helping and treating Syrian refugees through the clinics of the Kuwait Red Crescent and the Iraq Red Crescent. 

Hadid awarded the princess with the Jordan Red Crescent’s Golden Medal, which is the highest honour given by the organisation, according to Petra.
