  • Officials said the delivery was `the first of many donations` expected in the coming days, while Félix Plasencia called the donation `a message of cooperation among two sovereign countries`.
  • Observers noted the delivery follows last month's capture of then-President Nicolás Maduro and reflects new cooperation, with supplies aimed to stabilize Venezuela's collapsed health system.
