ERC holds event in Cairo to mobilise, prepare aid for Gaza

This initiative is part of efforts by the UAE to help ease the suffering of the people in Gaza quickly…reports Asian Lite News

The Emirates Red Crescent (ERC) organised the “From the UAE via Egypt to our people in Gaza” event in Cairo. The event aimed to pack and prepare aid for the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Media professionals, artists, and social media influencers from Egypt and other Arab countries attended and participated in the event.

This initiative is part of efforts by the UAE to help ease the suffering of the people in Gaza quickly and efficiently in response to the escalating humanitarian crisis. The focus is on minimising the negative impact on vulnerable groups like women, children, and the elderly.

In this regard, Rashid Mubarak Al Mansouri, ERC Secretary General, stressed that the UAE has been quick to provide relief, food, and healthcare needs to the people of the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the crisis. This is in line with the UAE’s commitment to alleviating the suffering of the Palestinian people as a result of the difficult and ongoing conditions they live in, and reflects the values of giving and human solidarity that are deeply rooted in the leadership and people of the UAE towards supporting their brothers in times of crisis.

Al Mansouri praised the support of Egypt, with its institutions and people, in providing the necessary facilities and coordination required to provide relief to the Palestinian brothers in Gaza. This has facilitated the entry of Emirati aid and the UAE field hospital into the Strip.

He said that the UAE and Egypt are collaborating at official and community levels in a spirit of fraternity and solidarity to support the Palestinian people in Gaza during their difficult times. Media professionals, artists, and social media influencers at the event expressed their joy in participating and commended the UAE’s active role in aiding Palestinians and providing medical treatment. These efforts significantly help ease the ongoing humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

The event “From the Emirates via Egypt to our people in Gaza” demonstrates the coordination and cooperation with Egyptian institutions and communities, underscoring the ERC’s belief in involving key community figures in humanitarian efforts.

The ERC remains committed to supporting and providing relief to the Palestinian people in Gaza. The consistent Emirati initiatives reflect the UAE’s historical commitment to aiding Palestinians, easing their humanitarian crisis, and upholding values of solidarity through a long history of relief and humanitarian work.
