The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) delivered a new batch of food aid to the eastern Deir al-Balah area in central Gaza Strip through its Saudi Center for Culture and Heritage, as part of the ongoing Saudi fundraising campaign to support the Palestinian people.

KSrelief's extensive efforts include the establishment of an air and sea bridge, through which 71 planes and eight ships have arrived to date, carrying more than 7,655 tons of food, medical supplies, and shelter materials, SPA reported.

Furthermore, 20 ambulances were delivered to the Palestine Red Crescent Society.

KSrelief also signed agreements worth $90.35 million with international organizations to implement relief projects in the Gaza Strip.

The center has conducted airdrops in partnership with Jordan to bypass the closure of border crossings and ensure the consistent delivery of aid.

The United Arab Emirates is preparing to increase aid deliveries into Gaza, an envoy said on Friday, saying a sea corridor from Cyprus was essential alongside land and air access.

Minister of State Lana Nusseibeh said a maritime route channelling pre-screened aid from the East Mediterranean island was a vital lifeline to the people of Gaza. The UAE has partnered with Cyprus in supplying large quantities of aid to the Palestinian enclave, devastated by a two-year war, Reuters reported.

"Maintaining multiple entry points into Gaza remains incredibly important," Nusseibeh said after an inspection of aid accumulating at the port of Limassol in Cyprus.

"As this plan moves forward, access to Gaza by land, air and sea is going to remain critical," she told reporters.

Israel and Palestinian militant group Hamas agreed a month ago to a first phase of a plan presented by US President Donald Trump. It paused a devastating two-year war in Gaza triggered by a cross-border attack by Hamas militants on October 7, 2023, and secured a deal to release Israeli hostages and Palestinian prisoners.

Despite the ceasefire, far too little aid was reaching Gaza, humanitarian agencies said on Tuesday.

Some 22,000 tons of pre-screened aid has been dispatched from Cyprus under the Amalthea Initiative launched last year. Some of it reached Gaza directly via a short-lived temporary pier set up by the US last year, while other shipments have been dispatched to the port of Ashdod in Israel.
