The 3rd Saudi relief plane, carrying 30 tons of assistance for the Ukrainian People, arrived at the Polish Rzeszow Airport near the Ukrainian border and will continue its route across the Polish border into Ukraine, the Saudi Press Agency reported Saturday.

The cargo consists of shelter materials, electric generators, and medical supplies, SPA said.

Saudi Arabia signed last week an agreement and a memorandum of understanding to provide an additional package of humanitarian assistance to Ukraine worth $400 million, which includes the provision of humanitarian aid from the Kingdom to Ukraine at a value of $100 million.

The Kingdom has previously provided urgent medical and relief aid worth $10 million for refugees fleeing Ukraine to neighboring countries, particularly Poland, in coordination with the Polish government and United Nations agencies.

Saudi Arabia welcomed on Wednesday the ceasefire in Lebanon, hailing the international efforts that helped achieve it.

In a statement, the Foreign Ministry hoped the ceasefire would lead to the implementation of United Nations Security Council Resolution 1701, preserve Lebanon’s sovereignty, security and stability, and ensure the safe return of the displaced to their homes.

The Muslim World League (MWL) welcomed the ceasefire, commending all efforts that contributed to ending the conflict and expressed its hope for continued security and stability for Lebanon and its people under its national sovereignty.

The Organization of Islamic Cooperation stressed the need for all parties to commit to the ceasefire agreement through the full implementation of Resolution 1701.

OIC Secretary General Hissein Brahim Taha underscored his full support for Lebanon’s stability and the right of its state to exercise its sovereignty across all Lebanese territories.

He called for humanitarian aid to meet the needs of those affected and for reconstructing what was destroyed in the war.

Moreover, he hoped that the ceasefire in Lebanon would pave the way for an immediate halt to the Israeli assault on Gaza and all occupied Palestinian territories.
