Three Qatari aircraft carrying 116 tonnes of aid for Palestinians in Gaza have arrived in Egypt, Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) said in a post on X.
The aircraft were carrying food and medical supplies provided by the Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD), the Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS) and Qatar Charity, the MFA said.
The supplies were delivered to Egypt’s El Arish International Airport in preparation for being transferred to Gaza, the post said, adding that the delivery brings the total amount of aid from Qatar to Gaza to 1,362 tonnes.
“The aid comes as part of the State of Qatar’s full support toward the brotherly Palestinian people during the difficult humanitarian conditions,” the MFA said.
