Kuwait’s seventh relief aircraft departed Tuesday from Abdullah Al-Mubarak Air Base, carrying 10 tons of food aid bound for Gaza through Marka Military Airport in Jordan.
The Kuwait Red Crescent Society (KRCS) organized the mission in cooperation with the Ministries of Social Affairs, Foreign Affairs, and Defense as part of the “Kuwait Is by Your Side” campaign.
KRCS Chairman Khalid Al-Maqamis told KUNA that continuous humanitarian convoys are being dispatched to address urgent needs in Gaza. He said the aid reflects Kuwait’s humanitarian principles and follows high-level directives to provide vital assistance.
He noted that coordination with Kuwait’s embassy in Jordan, the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization and the Palestinian Red Crescent is ensuring efficient aid delivery.
Al-Maqamis praised the support of His Highness the Amir Sheikh Meshal Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, the Crown Prince Sheikh Sabah Khaled Al-Hamad Al-Sabah and the Prime Minister Sheikh Ahmad Abdullah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah for their backing of humanitarian efforts.
So far, Kuwait’s second air bridge has delivered 100 tons of essential food supplies under the “Fazza for Gaza” campaign.
