The Armenian government has decided to arrange the transfer of children with serious illnesses from the Gaza Strip and provide them with treatment in Armenian medical facilities.

The Ministry of Health has been allocated 16.7 million drams (about 43,000 dollars) from the government's reserve fund for this purpose.

The ministry is working with the Foreign Ministry and the World Health Organization to transfer up to ten children to Armenia.

Armenia has previously sent humanitarian aid to Gaza on several occasions.
