Israel, which has contributed a consignment of relief aid to the Sri Lankans who have been affected by the cyclone Ditwah, expressed its deepest condolences to the Government and people of Sri Lanka for the tragic loss of lives and devastation caused by the recent disaster.
“In solidarity with the people of Sri Lanka and in support of ongoing national relief efforts, the Government of Israel along with MASHAV in Israel is providing a consignment of emergency humanitarian assistance to help meet urgent needs in impacted areas,” the Embassy of Israel in India said.
The relief shipment includes folding beds, first aid kits, surgical gloves, hygiene kits, mosquito nets, power banks, raincoats, mattresses, water tanks, baby utensil packs, kitchen sets, submersible water pumps and goggles.
Ms. Hadas Bakst, Political Advisor at the Embassy of Israel in New Delhi, is currently in Sri Lanka to personally oversee the delivery and coordination of the humanitarian relief operations.
This assistance reflects the longstanding friendship between Israel and Sri Lanka. Israel stands ready to continue supporting Sri Lanka’s recovery efforts during this difficult time.
The Embassy remains in close coordination with Sri Lankan authorities to ensure the timely delivery and distribution of the relief materials to the most affected communities, she said.
