Under the directives of HH Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, Dubai Humanitarian (DXBH) facilitated the dispatch of a critical humanitarian relief shipment to Gaza.
Through its Global Humanitarian Impact Fund (GHIF), Dubai Humanitarian enabled the overland transport of 22.3MT of essential medical supplies via a convoy of three trucks. The shipment, carrying life-saving medical aid provided by the World Health Organization (WHO), is set to support the urgent healthcare needs of approximately 110,000 people.
