UAE expands winter relief campaign across friendly nations

WAM

The Emirates Red Crescent (ERC) is continuing its humanitarian efforts by distributing winter clothing in several countries affected by harsh winter conditions.

The aim is to provide relief to those facing extreme cold and challenging weather.

In Albania, the ERC distributed winter aid to over 2,400 individuals across multiple counties, including wood-burning heaters and blankets to help them cope with the freezing temperatures.

The UAE charitable organisation has strengthened its relief programmes to meet the increasing humanitarian needs during the winter months, acknowledging the impact of shortages in heating materials and essential supplies.

Beneficiaries, particularly children, expressed their gratitude, with many joyfully receiving the much-needed assistance from the ERC.
