LONDON: The Jordan Hashemite Charity Organization remains dedicated to its humanitarian and relief operations in the Gaza Strip, two years on from the start of Israeli hostilities in the region.
Jordan was one of the first countries to establish a relief corridor to Gaza, coordinating with various entities, including the Jordanian Armed Forces, the Royal Jordanian Air Force, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Secretary-General of the JHCO Hussein Shibli said: “Jordan has been and continues to be the humanitarian safety valve for our people in Gaza.
“Over the past two years we have worked as part of an integrated national effort under Hashemite leadership to link Jordan’s charitable will with the needs of the Palestinian people in the most difficult circumstances.”
The JHCO has dispatched 201 land convoys to Gaza over the past two years, delivering a total of 8,664 trucks filled with food, medical supplies, and shelter materials. These have benefited hundreds of thousands of Palestinian families, according to the Jordan News Agency.
