A Hungarian government plane left for Thailand and Sri Lanka on Tuesday, carrying 10 doctors and medical supplies for victims of Sunday's killer earthquake and tidal waves in southern Asia.
The medical supplies could total over 70 million forint (about US$388,888) in value.
The plane, a charter flight of the Hungarian national airline Malev, will also take back injured and frightened tourists from the tsunami-stricken countries.
It was reported that more than 400 Hungarians, mainly tourists, were in the region when a massive earthquake struck the Indonesian island of Sumatra on Sunday, triggering tidal waves that killed tens of thousands across Southeast and South Asia.
