Abu Dhabi [UAE], October 24 (ANI/WAM): An aircraft carrying UAE aid has delivered urgent relief packages to the brotherly Lebanese refugees in the Arab Republic of Syria, and to Syrians returning to their country. The medical supplies dispatched are part of the UAE’s continuous humanitarian support, and are a key component of the ‘UAE Stands with Lebanon’ national campaign. Since October 4, the UAE has dispatched 14 aircraft; 12 to Lebanon, and two to Syria.
The UAE continues its extensive humanitarian endeavours to support the brotherly Lebanese in addressing the repercussions of the ongoing crisis, following the directives of President Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, and under the guidance of Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Vice President, Deputy Prime Minister and Chairman of the Presidential Court, and H.H.

Sultan Mohammed Al Shamsi, Assistant Minister of Foreign Affairs for Development Affairs and International Organisations, reaffirmed the UAE’s commitment to extending a helping hand to the Lebanese people. He underscored the UAE’s humanitarian principles and its deep-rooted values of solidarity and cooperation, which reflect the diversity of UAE society as it comes together to aid those in need. The UAE is dedicated to promoting security, stability, and prosperity while ensuring the recovery of communities impacted by ongoing wars and conflicts.
Furthermore, Al Shamsi emphasised that the UAE is working on dispatching 40 tonnes of additional food supplies to Lebanese refugees in Syria and to the Syrians returning to their country.
