UAE delivers 10 aid convoys to Gaza

On the southern outskirts of Amman last week, employees of the Jordan Food Bank were packing cheese, halawa, cooking oil, sugar, tuna and other canned food in large cardboard boxes adorned with the UAE flag.
“Many people only have bread and tea for their iftar,” said Qawthar Al Qatraneh, president of the Jordan Food Bank, which is overseeing co-ordination with its UAE partners.
“These parcels will help.”
The UAE officially reached its Dh100 million target for the 100 Million Meals campaign in just 10 days.
A website allowed the public to donate as little as Dh10 to fund 10 meals, rising to Dh500 or more.
The total was reached thanks to the generosity of 185,000 donors inside and outside of the Emirates.
