International Humanitarian Council series highlights UAE Gaza initiatives

The International Humanitarian Affairs Council launched a series of short films, highlighting the UAE's humanitarian initiatives in Gaza.

The footage shows the UAE's commitment to helping the Palestinian people on the Gaza Strip, and the initiatives put in place to help the most vulnerable groups such as women, children, and the elderly.

The documentary series, scheduled to be broadcast on national channels and digital platforms, titled “In the Introduction,” sheds light on a group of individuals working and volunteers in relief and humanitarian initiatives, implemented by Emirati agencies within the UAE and Egypt and the Gaza Strip.

Hundreds of workers and volunteers, within the teams concerned with implementing UAE relief and humanitarian initiatives since the outbreak of the war, have been working to provide assistance with health care, relief and food supplies, and providing livelihoods and shelter.

The International Humanitarian Affairs Council was established by federal decree last January, and is responsible for supervising all issues and matters related to international humanitarian affairs.
