Al Arish [Egypt], August 5 (ANI/WAM): The eighth UAE aid ship, Khalifa, reached Al Arish Port in Egypt on Tuesday as part of 'Operation Chivalrous Knight 3,' in preparation for delivering its cargo to the Gaza Strip, in continuation of the UAE's humanitarian support for the Palestinian people.
The ship was received by a delegation of representatives from humanitarian and charitable organisations, along with Ahmed Sari Al Mazrouei, Secretary-General of the Emirates Red Crescent (ERC), and Egyptian officials.
