A plane carrying 10 tonnes of three million Euro worth aid from Qatar for Bosnian healthcare institutions landed at the Sarajevo International Airport on Tuesday.

Bisera Turkovic, the Foreign Affairs Minister, said the help that arrived from Qatar will be distributed to the hospitals across Bosnia through crisis headquarters.

She said Qatar was the only Arab country to send the assistance to Bosnia and Herzegovina despite the fact that this country is facing a more complex situation caused by the pandemic, the Foreign Affairs Ministry said.

“The State of Qatar is a true friend of Bosnia and Herzegovina,” said Turkovic, thanking the people and Emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani, for the help during the difficult times their own country is facing during the coronavirus pandemic.
