New King Salman aid convoy arrives in Gaza's Deir al-Balah

A new humanitarian aid convoy arrived today in the city of Deir al-Balah in central Gaza, carrying tents provided by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center as part of the Saudi popular campaign to support the Palestinian people in the enclave.

The Saudi Center for Culture and Heritage, the local partner of the King Salman Center in Gaza, received the aid in preparation for its distribution and use in upcoming relief operations. The initiative aims to respond quickly to appeals from affected and displaced families and to provide shelter for those lacking safe accommodation.

The delivery of these tents is especially important as winter approaches, amid repeated warnings about the impact of severe weather and heavy rains on displaced people, many of whom are living in tents that lack adequate protection.

There is also a pressing need to bolster shelter supplies and prepare early for the risks of flooding and damage to camps, a hardship Gaza has faced during previous winters.

This effort reflects Saudi Arabia’s ongoing commitment, through the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center, to support the Palestinian people in Gaza and uphold its humanitarian values and mission.
