The team was briefed on a project to construct 1,000 pre-fabricated housing units and a project for the maintenance and rehabilitation of 40 schools in the Latakia Governorate. The delegation also visited a number of families affected by the February 6 earthquake.
The UAE continues to support Syrians through the recovery and rehabilitation process by providing food and medical supplies.
The delegation was led by Hamoud Abdullah Al Junaibi, Secretary-General of ERC, and the initiative is a continuation of the UAE's giving to the fraternal people of Syria.
