Turkey sends ventilators to Somalia

“The ventilators, which have been produced with national technology, will be a breath for our Somali brothers and sisters. Civilization is not a matter of means, but of conscience. Our nation's opportunities and conscience are with the oppressed and the needy. Dear nation, there is a sycamore in your heart called mercy!” Erdoğan tweeted on Saturday.

Turkey has so far provided medical assistance to 33 countries on military cargo aircraft to counter the infectious coronavirus.

Since March 16, Somalia’s Ministry of Health and Social Care has recorded 601 people infected with the Corona virus, including 31 recoveries and 28 deaths. (ILKHA)
