UAE Humanitarian Aid Ship Arrives In Al Arish With Gaza Relief Under Operation Chivalrous Knight 3
The United Arab Emirates, through Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, reaffirms its ongoing humanitarian role in supporting the Palestinian population in the Gaza Strip, focusing on relief for civilians facing hardship, including children, women and older people, and backing wider international efforts that aim to reduce suffering in the area.
Acting on the directives of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the Mohammed bin Rashid Humanitarian Ship has reached Al Arish Port in the Arab Republic of Egypt, carrying large quantities of relief items that are designated for communities in the Gaza Strip.
The ship’s total cargo exceeds 7,300 tonnes and contains varied supplies, such as essential food items, shelter equipment and winter clothing, along with nutritional supplements intended for children and women, assembled to address urgent humanitarian needs reported from the Gaza Strip over recent months.
Several UAE-based charitable and humanitarian organisations contributed to preparing and loading this shipment, demonstrating coordination between national entities and the country’s wider humanitarian framework, which is designed to ensure aid is dispatched rapidly, reaches those most affected, and meets recognised humanitarian and organisational standards across all stages of delivery.
On arrival at Al Arish Port, the ship was received by the relevant Egyptian authorities, who started unloading the cargo in coordination with humanitarian partners, while UAE Ambassador to the Arab Republic of Egypt Hamad Obaid Al Zaabi attended the arrival as preparations began for the entry of the aid into the Gaza Strip.
Through this shipment within Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, the United Arab Emirates continues to stand alongside the Palestinian people by providing structured support for relief operations, with the aim of easing civilian hardship in the Gaza Strip and reinforcing collective efforts to deliver timely humanitarian assistance where it is most needed.
