The Ruler of Ajman has come to the aid of six Sudanese siblings, who have been left orphaned after their parents died from coronavirus barely a month apart.
His Highness Sheikh Humaid bin Rashid Al Nuaimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Ajman, will pay for their living, educational and social expenses.
The gesture comes in line with the teachings of Islam and the Emirati tradition of extending a helping hand to the needy.
Local charities have also stepped in to help the children.
