A UAE relief aircraft carrying 100 tonnes of food supplies has arrived in Egypt’s Al Arish city, as part of the 'Humaid Air Bridge' under Operation Chivalrous Knight 3.

The mission is part of the UAE’s ongoing humanitarian efforts to support the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

The shipment includes 3,978 food parcels, aimed at meeting basic needs and improving food security for families facing severe conditions in Gaza.

The UAE humanitarian team in Al Arish received the aid on arrival. It has since been transported to the country’s logistics centre in the city, where it will be prepared for entry into Gaza through approved channels to ensure swift distribution.

Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 remains active across air, land and sea routes, delivering food, medical supplies and other essential aid, reflecting the UAE’s longstanding approach to humanitarian support and solidarity in times of need.
