The water supply service of coastal municipalities received eight reservations for water and four reservations for wastewater. The UAE continues to enhance its efforts to ensure water flow and the distribution of aid to people in Gaza through all available means to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people. Aid is sent by sea, land, and air and reinforces the long-term and unwavering commitment of the UAE to support the Palestinian people, continuously providing them with all possible humanitarian assistance.
The ship is heading to the Egyptian port of Arish, where aid will be delivered for the subsequent delivery in Gaza within the framework of operation "Sheikhly knight 3". The initiative demonstrates the firm commitment of the UAE to ensure vital support for the Palestinian people in Gaza. The ship is loaded with 5,800 tons of humanitarian supplies, including food products, construction materials, and medical supplies, provided at the expense of donations from the Emirates Red Crescent, the Sultan Bin Zayed Al Nahyan Charity and Humanitarian Activities Foundation, the Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan Foundation, Dar Al Ber Society, and the Sharjah Charity International.
This aid coincides with the largest phase of operation "Sheikhly knight 3" in Gaza, implemented by the directive of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan. The operation increases efforts to address urgent needs following the declaration of a ceasefire. Within the framework of the humanitarian aid operation, the UAE has launched several initiatives, including the establishment of two field hospitals – one inside Gaza and a floating hospital at the shores of Arish, as well as five automated bakeries.
In addition, six water desalination plants have been deployed, producing two million gallons of water daily, benefiting over 600,000 people. The operation also conducted 53 successful humanitarian exits in isolated areas in Gaza, which lacked access to aid. Six Emirati humanitarian vessels were sent today, delivering Sheikhly donation from His Highness.
These deliveries provided a total of 3,700 tons of humanitarian supplies and medical equipment within the framework of the initiatives for the operation "Birds of Goodness." Flour was also provided for nine existing bakeries, and 37 community kitchens in Gaza received support. The medical sector has been equipped with more than 700 tons of medical equipment, medicines, and consumable materials, as well as 15 ambulances.
Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, "Mother of the Nation," President of the General Women's Union, Chairwoman of the Supreme Council for Motherhood and Childhood, and Chairwoman of the Family Development Foundation expressed support and importance of the UAE's aid to the Palestinian people.
