The United Arab Emirates has intensified its humanitarian efforts in Gaza, executing the 62nd airdrop of aid as part of the 'Birds of Goodness' initiative, tied to Operation Chivalrous Knight 3.

This initiative is operated in concert with Jordan, with logistical and support roles from France, Germany, Belgium, and Canada. The purpose is to deliver urgent humanitarian aid to regions where land routes are unviable due to ongoing security concerns. The recent airdrop included essential food supplies and emergency relief goods, marking a cumulative total of over 3,829 tonnes of aid delivered by air.

In tandem with these air operations, the UAE has also dispatched 40 trucks laden with food aid into Gaza, reinforcing its persistent humanitarian assistance commitments. This underscores the UAE's enduring dedication to humanitarian causes and solidarity with allied nations during desperate times.
