RIYADH: A team from the Saudi aid agency KSrelief based in the Egyptian capital Cairo is helping to coordinate the Kingdom’s delivery of aid to the Gaza Strip, the Saudi Press Agency reported on Wednesday.
KSrelief officials met with the executive director of the Egyptian Red Crescent, Rami Al-Nazer, and UNICEF representative, Jeremy Hopkins, and Regional Director of the World Health Organization (WHO) for the Eastern Mediterranean, Dr. Ahmed Al-Mandhari to discuss ways to speed up the transportation of shelter materials, food baskets, and medical supplies through the Rafah Border Crossing into Gaza.
The center, in line with the directives of King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, recently launched a national campaign on the Sahem platform to provide aid to Palestinians in Gaza.
Donations as of Thursday had reached more than $112 million.
