Default Russian planes deliver medical aid to Italy to fight coronavirus

WATCH: Russian Army deliver medical aid at airbase near Rome as Moscow rallies to help coronavirus-ravaged Italy

Quote:
Russian personnel swiftly airlifted trucks full of medical equipment to Italy, the nation with the highest death toll from the Covid-19 pandemic.

A video by Russia's Defense Ministry shows containers with equipment being offloaded onto Kamaz military semi-trucks after an Il-76 transport plane landed in Italy's Pratica di Mare airbase, 30km (18.6 miles) from Rome. Personnel in white hazmat suits helped to prepare the cargo hatch before the vehicles could roll onto the tarmac.

Russian aircraft carrying Covid-19 aid have been arriving in Italy since Sunday evening. Moscow is helping Rome by providing medics and disease control experts, as well as sending testing kits and disinfection tools, the military said earlier.

WATCH Russian biodefense troops disinfect nursing home in coronavirus-hit Italy


28 Mar, 2020 11:04 / Updated 1 day ago

Experts from Moscow's biodefense unit have been deployed at the epicenter of the deadly Covid-19 outbreak in Italy, tasked with disinfecting a nursing home where patients died amid the coronavirus pandemic.

A Russian military biological and chemical protection team was dispatched to the Martino Zanchi nursing home in the city of Bergamo in Italy's northern Lombardy region on Friday.

Going from room to room, anti-epidemic specialists in hazmat suits and respirators sprayed disinfectant on all furniture, including beds and mattresses. They also thoroughly disinfected floors, walls and ceilings because traces of Covid-19 are known to have been found on many types of surfaces.

‘We have many friends in the world’: Italian FM says no ulterior motive to Russian Covid-19 aid, calls it ‘act of solidarity’


28 Mar, 2020 02:58 / Updated 1 day ago

Italian Foreign Minister Luigi Di Maio brushed aside suggestions that aid from Moscow to combat the coronavirus pandemic came with hidden intentions, stating his country had nothing to fear from Russian assistance.

In an interview with Euronews' Giorgia Orlandi published on Friday, the reporter pressed Di Maio to reveal the “real purpose” behind Moscow’s mission to deliver medical supplies to the Mediterranean nation, citing amorphous “doubts” and “fears” that the aid could shift international alliances after the outbreak dies down.

“The Russian Federation has sent face masks, ventilators and medical staff and teams to disinfect public buildings and our cities,” Di Maio said. “They have helped in their own way in an act of solidarity.”

"Italy is not a country that has to fear, as a result of aid, that it will have to bow in submission to other states. We are in the G7 and we have many friends in the world."

Russian military plane with coronavirus aid lands in US


1 Apr, 2020 20:10 / Updated 19 minutes ago

A Russian military aircraft, carrying supplies needed to fight the coronavirus outbreak, has landed in New York. The haul was sent after President Trump accepted an offer of assistance from Vladimir Putin.

The plane, that took off for its some 8,000-kilometer trek early overnight, has landed in the worst coronavirus-affected US city. The cargo contains protective face masks, as well as other medical equipment.

The delivery was agreed upon by the Russian and US presidents during a phone call. Vladimir Putin and Donald Trump discussed the fast-spreading Covid-19 pandemic as well as major shortages of protective gear in the US, according to the Kremlin press service.

Moscow said it decided to help since the coronavirus pandemic “affects everyone without exception and is of a global nature.” Trump, for his part, described the aid as a “nice” and a “very, very large planeload” of help from Russia.

They still need close attention, ”the Italian doctor emphasized.

At this point, the Bergamo Field Hospital accepted 70 patients with COVID-19 for treatment. 29 of them were discharged, and 41 continues to stay in the hospital. The duty of medical and nursing teams is organized around the clock, in three shifts.









Russian doctors evaluated the organization of the anti-epidemic regime in the temporary center for patients with COVID-19 in a sports complex in the city of Kruševac in Serbia. Temporary partitions were installed there, dividing the internal space into wards, each of which is equipped with hospital beds and the necessary medical equipment. Here patients will be treated only with mild to moderate severity of the disease.









Italian patients recovering from COVID-19 send flowers to Russian nurses as a token of gratitude for their assistance. A pleasant surprise met the girls in hotel rooms on their return from the shift.

Russian military experts have begun disinfecting medical facilities in the Italian province of Brescia. On the eve of the experts processed boarding houses for the elderly in the communes of Orzinuovi, Orzivecchi and Barbariga.

The heads of the communes of Orzinuovi and Orzivecchi Gianpietro Maffoni and Gianluigi Sturla personally greeted the Russian teams of specialists, thanking them for their help and noting the importance of the events.

At this point, Russian specialists together with Italian colleagues disinfected boarding houses for the elderly in almost 70 settlements of Lombardy. Processed 76 buildings and structures, more than 600 thousand square meters of interior and more than 100 thousand square meters of paved roads.

Disinfection was carried out in homes for the elderly in the cities of Quinzano d'Oglio, Pontevico and Pralboino.








Ten years later, the Western media will write that the Russian military raped all the elderly in Bergamo and Brescia. (At least in the past, these media behaved in this way.)
