Some seven million beneficiaries benefit from the Ramadan Ration and Iftar programmes in Shabwa, Hadramaut, Taiz, Hodeidah, and Socotra.

The initiative is in implementation of the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Deputy Supreme Commander of the UAE Armed Forces, and the follow up of H.H. Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Ruler’s Representative in Al Dhafra Region and Chairman of the ERC, to meet the needs of Yemenis during the Holy Month of Ramadan.

Mohammed Ateeq Al Falahi, Secretary-General of the ERC, said that the initiative is part of the humanitarian and developmental efforts undertaken by the UAE to improve life, alleviate the suffering in the Yemeni areas, meet the needs of the Yemenis during the holy month and enhance food security.
