The UAE, through its humanitarian arm Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, continued a campaign to provide safe drinking water to displaced Palestinian families in the southern Gaza Strip.
Over 70,000 beneficiaries received water assistance in the war-torn Strip due to infrastructure damage.
Water tanks were readied and given out in displacement zones with the Water Authority and Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 volunteers across southern Gaza.
These tanks are filled daily to facilitate access to water for displaced families, given the difficulties and challenges faced by municipalities in Gaza, which hinder their ability to provide essential services, including water, to citizens, causing a humanitarian disaster.
In the first and second phases, the UAE sought to operate six desalination plants and deliver water to the displaced through supply lines in Rafah and Khan Younis governorates.
Tanks were installed in various southern areas, benefiting thousands of displaced people from the vital projects carried out by Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, the largest relief operation in the Gaza Strip.
Additionally, 13 tanks of safe drinking water are filled daily with an estimated quantity of 116,000 litres, along with several vehicles heading to areas where displaced families are located to facilitate their access to water.
