Saudi Arabia's King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) has signed an agreement to provide $4 million in aid for the provision of a water, sanitation, and hygiene project, as well as an essential healthcare project for children and families in the Gaza Strip.
The agreement was signed by Assistant Supervisor General of Operations and Programs Eng. Ahmed Al Baiz from KSrelief and UNICEF Representative to the Gulf Area Eltayeb Adam on the sidelines of the International Conference on Conjoined Twins held in Riyadh.
The funds will be used to provide essential medical equipment and devices for sick children in Gaza, benefiting 73,000 children, SPA reported.

Additionally, the aid will support water, sanitation, and hygiene initiatives, benefiting 106,590 individuals.
This initiative aligns with the Kingdom's ongoing efforts to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people in Gaza amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
