A ship from the UAE carrying humanitarian aid for the people of Gaza has arrived in Al Arish, Egypt. The Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Humanitarian Ship – named in honour of the Vice President and Ruler of Dubai – was carrying more than 7,300 tonnes of supplies for the enclave. In July, the UAE announced the launch of a project to supply desalinated water to the southern Gaza Strip through a pipeline. It aims to serve 600,000 affected Gaza residents, providing 15 litres of desalinated water for each person each day. The UAE’s 200-bed field hospital in Gaza has provided medical care for more than 54,000 patients.
