KSrelief Delivers Humanitarian Aid Projects in Yemen, Lebanon

King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) has continued the implementation of the water and environmental sanitation project in Yemeni directorates of Hajjah and Saada governorates.

The project has been implemented in the districts of Midi, Hayran, Harad, and Abs in Hajjah and Al-Azhor camp in Saada’s Razih district.

In Hajjah, 692,000 liters of potable water and 8.09 million liters of usable water were pumped from April 12 to 18. Meanwhile, 30,100 individuals in Saada have benefited from the delivery of 70,000 liters of potable water and 70,000 liters of usable water to the governorate.

The Riyadh-based center has also continued its project of enhancing the healthcare services provided to the Syrian refugees and the host community in the town of Arsal in the Lebanese governorate of Baalbek.

In March 2023, Arsal Healthcare Center provided 11,663 services to 5,935 patients in the departments of clinics, pharmacy, laboratory, and nursing as well as through the community and psychological health program.

Males constituted 43 percent of the patients who received healthcare in the center, while females represented 57 percent of beneficiaries.

Also, 60 percent of the beneficiaries were refugees and 40 percent of them were residents.

The aid comes within the framework of the keenness of the Kingdom, represented by KSrelief, to provide humanitarian aid for the needy and Syrian refugees in all fields to alleviate their suffering amid the ongoing humanitarian crisis.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken emphasized the importance of improving the humanitarian situation in Gaza in a meeting with Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer in Washington on Monday, the State Department said.

Dermer updated Blinken on operational changes and policy decisions taken by Israel in response to a US letter sent in October, the department said in a statement on Tuesday.

Blinken "emphasized the importance of ensuring those changes lead to an actual improvement in the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza, including through the delivery of additional assistance to civilians throughout Gaza," State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller said in the statement.
