Summary

Description
English: This image shows an RAF C-17 on the pan at Accra Kotoka International Airport in Ghana.

The first of a series of Royal Air Force flights taking medical supplies to Africa to help fight the coronavirus pandemic departed Saturday, June 27 2020.

The RAF C-17 took off from RAF Brize Norton, Oxfordshire on a journey funded by the Department For International Development.

The transport aircraft was carrying a field hospital, which was used for frontline aid workers in Africa.

Aid workers play a crucial role in West Africa working to improve health systems, prevent the spread of coronavirus and save lives.

The flight was operated by a crew from 99 Squadron RAf and also contained a team of logistics movers from 1 Air Mobility Wing to quickly unload the equipment upon arrival and hand it over to the organisations waiting for it.
