AMMAN — Eighty-three trucks carrying humanitarian aid have entered Gaza, providing essential supplies, including food parcels, blankets, clothing and hygiene items.

 

This operation was organised by the Jordanian Armed Forces-the Arab Army and the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organisation (JHCO), in partnership with the World Food Programme, and supported by various organisations including the Helping Hand for Relief and Development and the Human Appeal, in addition to several campaigns.

 

Underlining Jordan's considerable efforts to help the people of Gaza, Hussein Shibli, JHCO secretary-general, said on Saturday that the assistance received at the JHCO warehouses from various local, regional, and international organisations demonstrates their confidence in Jordan's ability to effectively deliver humanitarian aid to the Strip.
