The first consignment of oxygen concentrators from Israel has arrived in New Delhi yesterday.

 

In his message, Israeli ambassador Ron Malka has said that more such flights will follow throughout this week, carrying emergency medical aid including thousands of group and individual oxygen generators, respirators, medications, and additional medical equipment. He said, our friendship is strong and collaboration during the Covid-19 crisis will only make it stronger. 

A task
