The UAE has shipped 270 tonnes of clothes under the "Clothing of Hope for Our Children in Gaza” initiative in its 328th humanitarian aid convoy to the Gaza Strip.

Part of "Operation Chivalrous Knight 3", the convoy includes 15 trucks with clothing and garments for children aimed at supporting Palestinian families amid the difficult conditions in the Strip.

The shipment was supported by several UAE humanitarian and charitable organisations, including the Emirates Red Crescent, the Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan Foundation, Sharjah Charity International, the Zayed for Good Foundation, the International Charity Organisation, Easa Saleh Al Gurg Charity Foundation, and Saqr Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi Charity and Humanitarian Foundation.

Meanwhile, a team in Egypt’s Al Arish continues to operate around the clock through the UAE humanitarian aid logistics centre.

Their tasks include receiving, sorting, preparing, and dispatching aid in line with needs inside Gaza to ensure a steady flow of assistance and support for Palestinians.
