UAE airdrops more aid into Gaza

The UAE has airdropped more essential food supplies into Gaza, bringing the total aid delivered under the "Birds of Goodness" campaign to more than 3,800 tonnes.

The airdrop was conducted in collaboration with Jordan, and with the participation of Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Greece.

It was supported by several charitable institutions and organisations in the UAE, national news agency Wam reported, adding that it was the country's 67th humanitarian airdrop since the “Birds of Goodness” campaign was launched.

This reinforces the UAE's commitment to supporting the Palestinian people caught in the humanitarian crisis.
