In a first step, the medical aid organization from Tönisvorst in the Lower Rhine region is providing 30,000 euros in emergency aid. "Our relief efforts will focus primarily on providing medical care to the population. We are in contact with local partner organizations who are assessing the situation on the ground and have already started with the first relief efforts,” Sid Peruvemba, spokesman for the board of action medeor, explains.

action medeor has been working for local aid organizations in Libya for many years and regularly supports them with relief supplies from Germany. "We are expecting the first reports from our partners today on what specific needs there are and will then immediately check how we can meet them. Where possible, the relief supplies will be procured locally. Where this is not possible, we will send relief supplies from our warehouse in Germany.“

Our many years of experience show that medicines, medical supplies, food, tents and blankets are needed in large quantities,” Peruvemba says.
