Two months after the signing of the cooperation agreement (MoU) between the Latin Patriarchate of Jerusalem and the Order of Malta, an additional aid delivery reaches the people in northern Gaza.
It is the second delivery of vital relief supplies to the parish in Gaza, which will be distributed to people in need in the following days.
A total of 40 tons of non-perishable food in kits were delivered for distribution on July 23rd, 2024 by Malteser International, at the new distribution Centre established by the Latin Patriarchate near the Patriarchate's compound in northern Gaza.
One relief kit can feed a family of five for one month. In the coming days relief kits will be distributed to families who are living in the area.
While the second humanitarian relief delivery has been successfully completed, further planning is already in progress. In addition to the provision of non-perishable food, ready-to-eat meals and specialized food for malnourished children and adults as well as other essential supplies, plans are underway to identify ways to provide medical care on the ground.
