Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid, Vice President and Ruler of Dubai, on Friday ordered 90 tonnes of aid be flown to flood-hit Libya. It is the third consignment of relief aid in the past three weeks to be sent from Dubai’s International Humanitarian City to Benghazi, Libya, as part of continuing efforts to support people affected by Storm Daniel. The UAE team also assisted Libyan authorities and teams to provide and aid and relief to the affected and displaced. Last month, Sheikh Mohammed ordered the activation of the relief air bridge to send aid to the region. Since then, Dubai’s International Humanitarian City has extended its support to transport relief supplies for five prominent international humanitarian organisations.
