The UAE has launched a campaign to provide relief aid to Palestinians impacted by the war in the Gaza Strip, under the theme ‘Tarahum – for Gaza’, the state news agency, WAM, reported.

The campaign will establish centers to collect and mobilise humanitarian relief packages in partnership with humanitarian and charitable institutions, volunteer centers, the private sector, media and all segments of society.

The relief campaign is being conducted in cooperation with the World Food Program, and in coordination with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Community Development.

Tarahum – for Gaza inaugurated on October 15 offers aid to Palestinians

The campaign aims to mitigate the severity of the humanitarian conditions, and alleviate the suffering of the most vulnerable Palestinians, especially children, who constitute nearly half of the population of the Gaza Strip, WAM said.

More than one million children are affected by the current conflict, and the campaign will work towards providing children and mothers with basic needs, in addition to health supplies and general hygiene materials.

The campaign was inaugurated on October 15, in Abu Dhabi, under the supervision of the Emirates Red Crescent in Abu Dhabi Cruise Terminal at Zayed Port from 9am-4pm, and will be organised across the rest of the country at a later date.
