Turkish medical students have volunteered in Morocco as part of a health relief campaign run by Turkey's state-run development and aid agency, TIKA.

Sixteen volunteers gave diabetes check-ups, blood pressure monitoring, and dental examinations.

The students have also donated medical supplies such as sterile gloves, blood pressure and blood glucose meters.

TIKA's campaign in Morocco is set to last until the end of this week, aiming to serve some 5,000 patients.
