The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) signed on Thursday an agreement with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees to provide supplies and medical equipment for UNRWA to fight the new coronavirus in the Gaza Strip.
The agreement was signed by Advisor at the Royal Court and KSrelief Supervisor General Dr. Abdullah Al Rabeeah and UNRWA chief Philippe Lazzarini during a virtual meeting held between them.
In a press statement, Al Rabeeah said that the agreement will benefit two million people.
He said the deal includes providing all necessary medical equipment and protective supplies including ultrasound machines, patient monitors, infusion pumps, pulse oximeters, beds for patient transfers, N95 masks, medications and antibiotics, which will meet the needs of medical teams to confront the pandemic in the impoverished Palestinian territory.
Al Rabeeah added that this agreement affirms Saudi Arabia’s leading role in alleviating the sufferings of all peoples around the world.
It also reflects the Kingdom’s keenness to harness potentials and resources to serve humanitarian cases in cooperation with UN agencies and organizations and the international community.
Al Rabeeah noted that the agreement comes upon the directives of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to stand with all friendly countries in confronting the pandemic.
