In a brief written statement sent to BBC Great Lakes, the government’s deputy spokesman, Alain Mukuralinda, said the donation was sent to the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organisation (JHCO) and has arrived in the Jordanian capital, Amman.
It was made “in support to the ongoing international rescue effort”, Mr Mukuralinda wrote.
The donation comprises 16 tonnes of food items, medicines and medical supplies, he said, adding “Rwanda reiterates the need for a de-escalation to protect the lives of innocent civilians”.
