The UAE has sent four aid convoys packed with supplies to Gaza via the Rafah crossing.
The convoys consisted of 41 lorries carrying more than 514 tonnes of aid including food, medical items, children's nutritional supplements, clothing, shelter materials and hygiene packages for women, according to state news agency Wam. The supplies were part of the UAE's Gallant Knight operation, which to date has sent 1,148 lorries of aid into Gaza.
Since the start of the war, the UAE has been among the largest donors of aid to Gaza, providing essential medical and food supplies. The Emirates has also established two hospitals, including one with a centre dedicated to providing prosthetic limbs for Palestinians injured in Israel’s war on Hamas.
Reem Al Hashimy, Minister of State for International Co-operation, recently told media outlets that the aid deliveries are “part of the UAE’s continuing commitment to alleviate the immense suffering of Palestinians".
