WAM

Over 609,000 Gazans have benefited from humanitarian aid distributed by the Emirates Red Crescent (ERC) over the last seven days, as part of the UAE's "Galant Knight 3" operation to support the Palestinian people.

The ERC successfully reached out to 609,314 residents in the Gaza Strip, distributing essential aid such as food parcels, relief kits containing hygiene items, and tents, between January 23 and January 30.

This is in addition to operating 17 charity kitchens, distributing meals to displaced people in Rafah, Khan Yunis, and the Central Governorate, while also supporting bakeries with flour to address the shortage.
