The convoys comprising 175 trucks carrying over 2,400 tonnes of food supplies, medical provisions, children's nutritional supplements, dates, shelter tents, and clothing, were sent as a gift from Her Highness Sheikha Fatima bint Mubarak, the "Mother of the Nation" ahead of the start of Ramadan.
This latest delivery brings the total number of aid convoys entering Gaza under Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 to 175.
