Second ship loaded with food to reach Qatar before Qurban Bayram

A second ship set to deliver food supplies to Qatar by the end of August has begun the loading process in western Turkey's Izmir province. The ship is being prepared at the Aegean port of Aliağa, where the first food-loaded vessel set off to Qatar, a country currently subject to a blockade from several Arab states. Packed with dry food, fruits and vegetables, the second ship is scheduled to depart from on August 16 and will anchor at Doha Hamad Harbor on August 26, five days before Qurban Bayram (Feast of the Sacrifice), also known as Eid al-Adha. İpek Demirci, general manager of the logistics company behind the shipment told Anadolu Agency that the second vessel has more loading capacity than the first ship, which carried about 4,000 tons of food products to the Gulf nation in June. https://www.dailysabah.com/turkey/2017/08/15/second-turkish-ship-loaded-with-food-to-reach-qatar-before-qurban-bayram
