The Mohammed Bin Rashid Humanitarian Ship has completed loading over 10 million meals at Khalifa Port in Abu Dhabi.
The shipment, weighing more than 7,200 tonnes, will support families in the Gaza Strip as part of Operation Chivalrous Knight 3.
The ship is scheduled to sail to El Arish Port in Egypt, arriving in early January 2026, after which the aid will be delivered into Gaza.
On December 7, the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Global Initiatives hosted a major meal-preparation event at Dubai Exhibition Centre – Expo City, receiving over 20,000 volunteer applications in just one week.
Food baskets, each containing 20 essential items to feed a family of five for a week, were assembled in record time, ensuring nutritious, high-quality supplies for those in need.
