Morocco plans to send 100 intensive care beds and a similar number of ventilators to help Tunisia tackle a surge in Covid-19 cases, Rabat's foreign ministry said.
Morocco joins other Arab states which promised to help the North African country as it struggles to contain its worst coronavirus outbreak since the pandemic began, putting its health care system under severe stress and depleting oxygen supplies, Reuters reports.
Intensive care units are full and there is a severe shortage of oxygen, officials said. The total number of coronavirus cases so far in Tunisia has climbed to 497,613, including 16,388 deaths.
