UAE steps up winter relief efforts for Gaza families

The UAE's Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 has launched its annual Winter Clothing Initiative aimed at supporting one million people in Gaza.

The campaign's first aid flight carried 5,000 winter kits provided by the Zayed Charitable and Humanitarian Foundation.

The shipment included 50,000 jackets, blankets and other essentials to help Palestinian families cope with colder weather conditions.

Officials said the initiative responds to growing humanitarian needs in Gaza ahead of winter and forms part of the UAE's ongoing efforts to provide relief and support to Palestinians.
