Here you can watch the video realized by the italian reporter, Anna Migotto, for the program TERRA of Canale 5 - Mediaset sent on air the 10 of June 2010
On the 1st of June 2010 we've start the operation with our Air Hospital.
We've flown from Bergamo Airport - Italy till Costantine - Alegerie, then Tamarraset - Algerie and then following till Ouagadougou in Burkina Faso.
Twelve hours of flight, plus 4 hrs for the stop-overs in Costantine and Tamarraset, to refuel and rest for a while.
All the ferry was done in one day. Quite long but very interesting!!!
The doctors had started the operations the 3rd of June, with the first three patients. They have operate till the 17th of June
The mission was a success, with just few problems to be face. GOOD!!!
