In response to the recent wave of threats and evictions, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) has provided urgent humanitarian aid to the displaced residents of Eastern Khan Younis.
The aid initiative aims to alleviate the suffering of those affected and support them amid challenging circumstances.
According to the Emirates News Agency (WAM) on Friday, the assistance included the provision of shelter tents, food parcels, and emergency supplies, reaffirming the UAE’s commitment to meeting the needs of the affected individuals during these difficult times.
Volunteer teams have been actively supporting the displaced families, setting up tents, preparing them for use, and distributing food parcels to help the residents navigate through this crisis.
The UAE continues its significant support for healthcare in Gaza by delivering essential medical supplies and medicines to the UK field hospital and UK-Med clinics in the region.
This effort, part of Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, addresses the severe shortage of medical supplies in Gaza, where the local healthcare system is struggling to meet the urgent needs of patients.
The UAE field hospital in Rafah has dispatched approximately three tonnes of medications and medical supplies to the UK field hospital, which serves displaced individuals in the Al Mawasi safe zone.
Since the launch of Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, over 400 tonnes of medical aid have been delivered to the Gaza Strip.
The UAE is also collaborating with global medical organisations, including the World Health Organisation, to enhance humanitarian efforts and ensure necessary treatments reach those in need.
Meanwhile, the Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that the death toll in Gaza has risen to 40,005, with the majority of the victims being children and women, since the onset of the Israeli occupation’s assault on October 7.
In a statement, the ministry added that the number of injuries has surged to 92,401 since the beginning of the aggression. Thousands of victims are still trapped under the rubble, according to the Palestinian news agency “WAFA.”
