Keeping up with its humtarian gesture, India on Sunday sent COVID-19 vaccines to Afghstan by a Mumbai-Delhi-Kabul Air India flight.

Last month, Tahir Qadiry, Afghstan's Charge d'Affaires had said Afghstan will receive 500,000 doses of coronavirus vaccine from India.

"In the continuation of admirable humtarian gesture and bilateral bonhomie, India will soon send 500,000 doses of vaccine to Afghstan. This will expedite our efforts to tackle this medical emergency. Immensely thankful to our allies," Qadiry tweeted.

Till now, India has supplied Indian-made COVID-19 vaccines to neighbouring countries including Bhutan, Maldives, Nepal, Myanmar, and Bangladesh.
