This Sunday, November 10, the vessel of the Bolivarian National Navy of Venezuela arrived at the port of Santiago de Cuba, with more than 300 tons of humanitarian aid sent by the nation to deal with the damage caused by the passage of hurricanes Rafael and Oscar through Cuban territory.

The head of the Venezuelan Diplomatic Mission in Havana, Orlando Maneiro, stressed that the island was subject to significant damage as a result of two important climatic events, which is why Venezuela has extended its helping hand.

“Brothers see each other, brothers express themselves, brothers reach out to each other, help each other. Cuba has always been the best example of solidarity in the world and today Venezuela accompanies it,” he said, highlighting the brotherhood between the two nations.

It is worth remembering that the humanitarian cargo left last Wednesday, November 6, from Puerto Cabello, Carabobo state, during an activity led by the Minister of People's Power for Foreign Affairs, Yván Gil, accompanied by the Deputy Minister for the Caribbean, Raúl Li Causi and the Cuban ambassador accredited to Caracas, Dagoberto Rodríguez, together with representatives of Bolivariana de Ports (BOLIPORTS).

Venezuela's aid to the sister island nation consists of 2,500 4H kitchen units, 10,000 single and double mattresses, 10,000 galvanized sheets of zinc, 20,000 iron tubes and roof hooks, and a personal hygiene kit.
