Four UAE humanitarian aid convoys entered the Gaza Strip over the past week carrying 781 tonnes of supplies as part of Operation Chivalrous Knight 3.

The convoys comprised 57 trucks carrying food and shelter supplies, along with nine water tankers.

The latest deliveries bring the total number of trucks sent into Gaza under the operation to 14,290, carrying more than 136,000 tonnes of humanitarian assistance since it began.

Aid continues to be prepared at the UAE Humanitarian Aid Logistics Centre in the Egyptian city of Al Arish, where supplies are received, sorted and prepared before being transported to Gaza.

The UAE says the operation is continuing its efforts to provide essential supplies to Palestinians in the territory.
