Deputy political representative of the European Union for Afghanistan, Raffaella Iodice, on Wednesday, tweeted that nearly 100 tons of medicine and medical supplies were delivered to Kabul, Afghanistan.

"Close to 100 tons of medicines and medical items safely arrived in Afghanistan via the EU's humanitarian Air Bride," Iodice tweeted.
