KUWAIT, July 29 (Xinhua) — Kuwait announced on Monday the launch of an "air bridge" to deliver humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip following a three-day donation campaign launched by the government last week.
Assistant Foreign Minister for Development and International Cooperation Hamad Al-Meshan said the funds raised would be used to purchase humanitarian aid from the local market, including oil, flour and other essential items.
He added that the supplies would be delivered to the Egyptian city of El Arish by military aircraft and handed over to the Egyptian Red Crescent in coordination with its Kuwaiti counterparts.
H. Al-Meshan also noted the possibility of transferring part of the aid to Jordan, and then the Jordanian army would drop it from the air into Gaza.
Kuwait's Foreign Ministry, in a statement last week, reiterated its condemnation of Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip, which has further worsened hunger and malnutrition in the besieged enclave. –0–
