Part 4/5:
The humanitarian efforts are not limited to air and sea transport; aid is also being meticulously prepared on the mainland of France. Firefighters have been mobilized to assemble materials needed for constructing a field hospital, which will be crucial for managing the influx of patients requiring intensive care.
Currently, Red Cross pallets containing critical supplies are awaiting departure from a warehouse in Réunion. The site director expressed hope for their release within the week, but the unpredictable situation creates uncertainty. Among the supplies are plastic sheets intended for roofing and kits designed for temporary housing, which will help communities start rebuilding their homes.
