MINSK, 13 April (BelTA) -  On the orders of Uzbekistan President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, a plane with medical supplies was sent to Belarus. The IL-76 military aircraft arrived at Minsk National Airport on the night of 11-12 April, BelTA has learned.

Uzbekistan has sent disposable overalls, respirators, goggles, latex gloves and masks - a total of 513,000 protective equipment items. The plane delivered 500,000 meters of gauze, 50,000 packages of antiseptics and 10,000 liters of medical alcohol.

The cargo is intended for the Belarusian people as a gesture of goodwill from the Uzbekistan president, which emphasizes the friendly nature of both Belarusian-Uzbek relations in general and also between the leaders of the two countries.
