Mohammed bin Rashid directs to help 50,000 people in Gaza.. What did he decide?

Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, directed, on Tuesday, the provision of tents sufficient to shelter 50,000 people in the Gaza Strip, to help them confront the climatic conditions and the dangers of torrential rains resulting from rainfall during the winter. The official Emirates News Agency, WAM, said on Tuesday that the tents will be provided through the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives Foundation, and that they will be delivered to the Gaza Strip and distributed in several areas, in cooperation with Operation Gallant Knight 3.

Operation “Gallant Knight 3” was launched on November 5, 2023, under the directives of the President of the UAE, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to provide humanitarian, relief, medical and food support to the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, and to alleviate their suffering in light of the difficult humanitarian conditions, according to WAM. The agency stated that Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid’s directive to provide tents urgently embodies the UAE’s keenness to help the Palestinian people and stand by them in various circumstances, noting that the UAE was one of the first countries to take the initiative to provide support and urgent relief to the residents of the Gaza Strip.

WAM added that the UAE is the largest donor of humanitarian aid in Gaza, in line with its principles and historical commitment to supporting the Palestinian people. The agency indicated that Operation “Gallant Knight 3” has transformed within three years into an integrated humanitarian system, including the provision of food, medical, water and shelter aid, in addition to health care, education, support for women, children, the elderly and people with disabilities, as well as community initiatives and psychological and social support programmes.
