WNAM REPORT: The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center carried out a sweeping series of humanitarian operations across four countries this week, the Saudi Press Agency reported in several dispatches, delivering food and shelter assistance to tens of thousands of vulnerable people amid ongoing crises.
KSrelief distributed 717 food baskets in Gaza City on Wednesday, reaching 4,302 individuals, as part of a broader Saudi campaign to assist Palestinians caught in the ongoing conflict.
The center’s central kitchen also distributed 53,700 hot meals across central and southern Gaza, benefiting 55,620 people from the most vulnerable families in the territory.
In Ethiopia, Saudi Ambassador Abdullah Al-Zahrani, on behalf of KSrelief, handed over 50 tons of dates to State Minister Huria Ali Mahdi of Ethiopia’s Ministry of Women and Social Affairs in Addis Ababa, in the presence of government officials and a KSrelief field team.
Established in 2015 by royal decree, KSrelief is Saudi Arabia’s principal humanitarian agency, mandated to coordinate and deliver relief assistance both domestically and internationally.
The center operates across dozens of countries, funding and executing programs in food security, shelter, healthcare, education, and emergency relief. KSrelief works in coordination with UN agencies, international nongovernmental organizations, and host governments, and has emerged as one of the most active humanitarian donors in conflict and disaster-affected regions, with a particular focus on the Arab world and Muslim-majority nations.
