An Emirati cargo plane arrived in Amman Monday with medical aid that will be driven to the Palestinian Territories, the official Petra news agency reported. 

The plane is carrying "dozens of tons" of medical equipment and pharmaceutical products that will be taken across the King Hussein bridge linking Jordan and the West Bank, the agency said. 

The aid is going to a "mobile" medical center in the West Bank set up in October by Jordan and the UAE to treat Palestinians wounded by Israeli troops, Petra added -- AMMAN, Nov 13 (AFP)
