The UAE has conducted its largest air drop of humanitarian and relief aid into Northern Gaza.

A total of 90 tonnes of aid were dispatched as part of "Operation Birds of Goodness," in collaboration with Egypt. 

Three planes were used in the operation, and the aid drop took place over isolated and inaccessible areas in the northern Gaza Strip. It brings the total amount of aid dropped to 664 tonnes.

The UAE is making a big effort during Ramadan to support the Gaza Strip through government and charity partnerships.

Earlier this week the UAE and Jordan carried out a joint airdrop of food aid.
