A humanitarian assistance package for the earthquake affected people of Syria from the government of Bangladesh has reached Damascus, Syria.

The assistance package containing dry food, medicines, blankets, tents and winter clothes was sent on Saturday by a special flight of Bangladesh Air Force Aircraft C-130J.
