"According to arrangements with Helal Iran Textile Industries, there is a possibility of purchasing the company's new products, particularly blankets, for ICRC's relief operations in Iraq, Afghanistan and other crisis-hit areas in the region," Patrick Youssef said.
He made the remarks in a meeting with Mohammad-Shahabeddin Mohammadi Araqi, the deputy director of the Iranian Red Crescent Society (IRCS) for international and humanitarian affairs.
Youssef further pointed to the ICRC's long-term humanitarian programs in Iraq, and said the organization is willing to share its experiences with IRCS and boost cooperation in various fields.
Since June 10, 2014, Iraq has witnessed a fresh wave of violence after militants from the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) terrorist group took control of large swathes of the war-stricken country.
The ISIL Takfiri group has been committing heinous crimes against all ethnic and religious groups in the Arab country, including Shiites, Sunnis, Kurds, Christians, and Izadis.
