The UAE’s largest relief initiative for Gaza is entering its biggest phase, targeting 9,500 displaced people living in shelters and temporary tents.
Part of Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, the campaign will focus on people near Al Aqsa University in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, Emirates news agency Wam said on Saturday.
The latest phase will include vital repairs to water lines and sewerage networks, as well as supporting bakeries and soup kitchens to ensure they have sufficient food.
Two UAE aid envoys carried humanitarian items into the Gaza strip this week through the Rafah border crossing from Egypt. The convoys comprised 25 lorries carrying more than 309.5 tonnes of aid, including food, tent shelters and other essential items.
This brings the total number of aid convoys that have entered the Gaza Strip under Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 to 155.
