Ajman, April 26 (Petra) -- A United Arab Emirates aid aircraft carrying 100 tonnes of food supplies arrived in the Egyptian city of El Arish on Sunday, marking the latest shipment in an ongoing airbridge supporting Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

The delivery, part of the "Gallant Knight 3" humanitarian operation, consists of 3,300 food parcels designed to meet the essential needs of displaced families and bolster food security within the enclave, according to the Emirates News Agency (WAM).

An Emirati humanitarian team stationed in El Arish received the aircraft upon arrival. The cargo was unloaded and transferred to the UAE’s regional logistics center in the city, where it will be prepared for overland transport into Gaza through established coordination channels.

The mission is part of the UAE's broader efforts to alleviate the humanitarian crisis in Gaza by ensuring a steady flow of essential supplies to affected populations.
