New Saudi aid convoys, consisting of 31 trucks loaded with 4,494 shelter kits, arrived in the northern Gaza Strip to aid residents and displaced people in Gaza City.
The shelter kits meet families' needs; they consist of blankets, mattresses, cooking utensils, water containers, and other basic needs, and will help residents cope with the difficult conditions in Gaza Strip, SPA reported.
The aid is part of the campaign to raise funds to assist the Palestinian people in Gaza Strip, launched by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSrelief) under the directives of Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud and the Crown Prince.
The Saudi Center for Culture and Heritage, the executive partner of KSrelief in Gaza Strip, will begin distributing immediately this assistance to displaced families in the northern Gaza Strip, to help alleviate their suffering in the severe cold and the ongoing siege.

US President Donald Trump said on Monday he plans to visit Saudi Arabia as early as May in what will be the first foreign trip of his second term, with stops also planned in Qatar and the United Arab Emirates.

"It could be next month, maybe a little later," Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.

Four sources briefed on the matter said mid-May was being looked at as the timing for the trip. Trump made Saudi Arabia and Israel the initial stops on his inaugural foreign trip during his first term in 2017.

Topics likely to be discussed include Russia's three-year-old war in Ukraine and the war in Gaza, one source said.

Saudi Arabia has played a prominent role in US foreign policy, including hosting US ceasefire talks with Russia and Ukraine.

"An opportunity for international travel for the president is something that is being looked at. We don’t yet have a specific plan, and we will provide that information when it is official," a White House official said ahead of Trump's remarks.
