WFP’s Pacific Humanitarian Air Service flies medical supplies to Vanuatu

The supplies were sent Friday on behalf of WHO, UNFPA, UNDP, UN in Pacific and the Government of New Zealand.

“We are pleased that our Pacific Humanitarian Air Service continues to be the lifeline filling in the gaps left by commercial supply chain disruptions. The impacts of the Covid-19 are still being strongly felt across the Pacific, and with the support of our UN and government partners, we are able to move lifesaving medical cargo, when and where it is needed,” said Carlos Veloso, Country Director a.i. of WFP’s Pacific Multi-Country Office.
