The Islamic Republic of Iran dispatched a plane load of 30 tons of humanitarian aid, including food stuff, tents and medicines with Iran's Red Crescent Society spearheading the move, for the people of Haiti hit by the January 12 earthquake. A 30-member team of Iran's doctors and relief workers was also dispatched.

The team is planning to set up a mobile clinic and distribute medicine among the disaster-hit people of Haiti. Meanwhile, a second medical team from the Islamic Republic of Iran is also due to depart to Haiti shortly.
