UAE steps up humanitarian support for people of Gaza

A UAE aid ship, carrying 2,500 tonnes of essential supplies, has arrived to support the people of Gaza, as part of the country’s ongoing relief efforts under 'Operation Chivalrous Knight 3'.

The vessel docked at Israel’s Port of Ashdod ahead of transferring its cargo into the territory.

The ship carries food parcels and children’s packages with essentials like flour, dates, milk and tea. The supplies aim to ease the suffering of displaced families and help them endure worsening conditions.

Since the launch of Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 in November 2023, the UAE has sent multiple aid shipments to Gaza, reflecting its commitment to humanitarian support and solidarity with the Palestinian people.

The aid is being delivered in coordination with UAE humanitarian institutions, reinforcing the nation’s consistent approach to standing by those in need.
