A cargo plane of the Russian Ministry of Emergency Situations with the humanitarian aid on board landed this week in Kandahar, the Afghanistan’s capital. The relevant instructions were provided by Commander-in-Chief Vladimir Putin. 25 tons of the humanitarian aid were collected for the residents of Afghanistan by Russians — the aid mostly included food and essential daily use items.
The aid was delivered as part of the international project “Peoples Together Through the Years”. The planes were accompanied by Advisor to the Head of the Federal Agency for Emergencies of Russia, Chairman of the Volgograd House of Friendship Kazbek Farniev, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the Volgograd House of Friendship, Moscow businessman Feruz Rona and Chairman of the Afghan National and Cultural Autonomy of Volgograd Abdul Manan.
The mission was supported by Russian government organization Rossotrudnichestvo and the “Russia with You” project, which tells foreign citizens about the activities of Russia in the field of promoting international development.

The team of the cultural and humanitarian mission opened an air corridor between the two countries for the first time in 30 years and delivered the cargo needed for the residents of Afghanistan. The support is regularly provided to victims of various natural disasters.
As part of the project “Peoples Together Through the Years,” the Russians also provided assistance to residents of Syria, Palestine, and Armenia.
