Egyptian Red Crescent sends 10th ‘Zad Al-Ezzah' convoy with 3,000 tons of aid to Gaza
The Egyptian Red Crescent continues its food and relief support to Gaza. On Thursday, it dispatched the tenth convoy of 'Zad Al-Ezzah… From Egypt to Gaza,' carrying food and medical aid toward the southern part of the Strip via the Kerem Shalom crossing.
The tenth 'Zad Al-Ezzah' convoy was loaded with 3,000 tons of humanitarian aid, including 2,500 tons of food baskets and flour, as well as tons of personal hygiene and medical supplies, baby formula, and tens of thousands of bags of fresh bread. This effort is part of the Egyptian Red Crescent's work to address the severe food shortages within the Strip.
The 'Zad Al-Ezzah… From Egypt to Gaza' convoy, launched by the Egyptian Red Crescent on July 27, has so far delivered thousands of tons of varied aid. This includes food supplies, flour, baby formula, medical supplies, medicines, personal hygiene products, and two fuel trucks.
The Egyptian Red Crescent has been a key national mechanism for coordinating and mobilizing aid to Gaza since the beginning of the crisis.
The Rafah crossing has never been closed from the Egyptian side. The organization remains on high alert in all its logistical centers, with ongoing efforts to deliver aid that has now surpassed 36,000 trucks, carrying nearly half a million tons of humanitarian and relief supplies, thanks to the efforts of its 35,000 volunteers.
