Another plane has arrived in Abu Dhabi, carrying wounded children and cancer patients from Gaza.

It's the 15th aircraft to arrive in the UAE capital from Al-Arish Airport in Egypt, part of directives issued by UAE President His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, last year.

The latest operation saw the arrival of 27 patients along with 60 family members.

Medical teams are providing on-going care to those in critical condition, while others have been transferred to the Emirates Humanitarian City for residence.
