A new batch of Saudi relief convoys provided by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) crossed the Rafah border crossing on Thursday.

The aid included food, shelter, and medical assistance to be delivered to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.

This comes as a part of the fundraising aid campaign provided to the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip and within the framework of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's historic role in standing with the brotherly Palestinian people in times of crisis.

European foreign ministers will meet at the end of January to discuss the lifting of sanctions on Syria, the EU foreign policy chief said on Sunday in Riyadh ahead of a meeting of top Middle Eastern and Western diplomats and Syria's new foreign minister.

Kaja Kallas, the EU foreign policy chief, said the foreign ministers would convene in Brussels on Jan. 27 in an effort to decide how the 27-nation bloc would relax sanctions on Syria, Reuters reported.

After 13 years of civil war, Syria's President Bashar al-Assad was ousted in a lightning offensive by insurgent forces led by the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) a month ago. The group has since set up a caretaker government in Damascus.

Any European decision to ease sanctions would be conditional on the new Syrian administration's approach to governing, which must include "different groups" and women and "no radicalization", Kallas said, without elaborating.

"If we see the developments going to the right direction, we are ready to do the next steps...If we see that it's not going to the right direction, then we can also move back on this."
