The UAE, in partnership with Jordan, has completed its 56th airdrop of humanitarian aid over Gaza under the 'Birds of Goodness' initiative.

This marks the third consecutive day of airdrops as part of 'Operation Chivalrous Knight 3'.

The mission reflects the UAE’s ongoing commitment to supporting the Palestinian people, especially in hard-to-reach areas facing severe humanitarian challenges.

So far, 3,763 tonnes of food and relief supplies have been delivered using 195 aircraft.

The UAE says it will continue working with regional and international partners to ensure aid reaches those in need across Gaza.
