UAE dispatches massive water aid convoy to northern Gaza

The United Arab Emirates has dispatched its largest-ever convoy of water tankers to northern Gaza under its ongoing humanitarian initiative, Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, in a major effort to relieve the territory’s worsening water crisis, WAM reported.

The operation aims to restore access to safe drinking water in areas where infrastructure has been decimated by months of conflict and displacement. Thousands of families in northern Gaza are struggling to secure even basic necessities, with water scarcity emerging as one of the most urgent humanitarian challenges.

Alongside the water convoys, the UAE has also distributed food parcels and essential relief supplies to hundreds of displaced families in the region. The aid seeks to provide immediate relief and help communities endure the dire living conditions brought on by continuous displacement and limited access to vital resources.

This latest effort forms part of a broader series of UAE-led humanitarian initiatives under Operation Chivalrous Knight 3, reflecting Abu Dhabi’s continued commitment to assisting vulnerable populations and upholding humanitarian values amid ongoing conflict.

The UAE has reaffirmed that it will continue delivering life-saving aid to Gaza’s civilians, focusing on sustaining resilience, alleviating suffering, and ensuring access to the essentials of a dignified life.
