(MENAFN- Trend News Agency) ASHGABAT, Turkmenistan, September 5. President of Turkmenistan Serdar Berdimuhamedov has signed an order to dispatch humanitarian aid to Afghanistan in the wake of the earthquake that struck the country on August 31, Trend reports.

The support, dispatched under the auspices of the Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedov Charitable Foundation for Assistance to Children in Need of Care, will encompass pharmaceuticals, nutritional provisions, textiles, and a variety of critical resources.
