Humanitarian aid

Hats off to the UAE leadership who always remain firm helping Lebanese brothers and sisters and making sure the humanitarian aid must reach the needy people in Lebanon (“22 planes, 2 ships loaded with aid sent by UAE to Lebanon in 3 months,” Jan.13, Gulf Today website).

According to the report, Sheikh Theyab Bin Mohamed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Chairman of the Presidential Court for Development and Fallen Heroes’ Affairs, Chairman of the International Philanthropic and Humanitarian Council, and Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Erth Zayed Philanthropies, stressed that the massive response to the “UAE stands with Lebanon” campaign reflected the humanitarian and civilisational ethos of the country at the levels of the community, leadership, and government, which sprang from the great legacy of the founding father the late Sheikh Zayed Bin Sultan Al Nahyan, who had emphasised the importance of extending a helping hand to all peoples in the throes of wars and disasters.

The United Arab Emirates always remains the top country in helping Lebanon and its people in their difficult times.

An uninterrupted humanitarian aid from the United Arab Emirates to its brothers and sisters in Lebanon shows the brotherly relationship between both countries.
