Many have already died of starvation, while entire families go days without food, as international bodies warn of an imminent and large-scale humanitarian these dire humanitarian conditions, the UAE, as usual, wasted no time in taking the initiative, resuming airdrops of aid and rapidly intensifying relief efforts by land, air, and goal is to avert an imminent humanitarian catastrophe by every possible means, while mobilising international efforts to pressure all parties into allowing the delivery of life-saving show that the UAE has topped the list of countries providing humanitarian support to the Gaza Strip since the beginning of the conflict, contributing over 42% of the total aid delivered to the Strip. Once aid channels reopened, the UAE dispatched the ship 'Khalifa', its eighth and largest humanitarian vessel, carrying approximately 7,166 tonnes of food and medical supplies, while Emirati airdrops of relief continue across the the ground, humanitarian aid trucks from the UAE, Egypt, and Jordan have resumed entry into the Gaza Strip through key border five Emirati automatic bakeries are operating in Egypt's Al Arish city, supplying daily bread to nearly half a million people in Gaza and helping to alleviate the severe bread shortage inside the Strip. In addition, six water desalination plants are providing approximately 1.2 million gallons of clean water to over 600,000 residents across the aid reflects the UAE's unwavering commitment to supporting its Palestinian brothers and sisters during the devastating humanitarian crisis in Gaza. It is part of the humanitarian operation 'Chivalrous Knight 3' and a series of initiatives launched by the UAE under the directives of President His Highness Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al efforts include medical care for the wounded and sick through a field hospital in Gaza, the treatment of hundreds of injured and ill individuals from Gaza in Emirati hospitals, support for community kitchens across the Strip, and the provision of tents to shelter displaced humanitarian support is making every effort to prevent the collapse of Gaza's health system and the loss of basic necessities of life. The airdropping of aid has helped ease the impact of the devastating humanitarian crisis.
