Turkish Red Crescent had previously sent 5 experts and 10 truckloads of foodstuffs to Gaza after the Israeli offensive hitting the region.
The second convoy sent to Gaza carries 3,300 packages of foodstuffs, 5,000 blankets and 1 ton of medical supplies, the aid organization said in a written statement on Thursday.
Turkish Red Crescent's Director General Tekin Kucukali also said that both Turkey and the international community should be sensitive towards the painful developments in the region.
