Saudi Arabia Announces a Monthly Financial Grant to Alleviate the Palestinian Humanitarian Crisis in Gaza
In continuation of the gracious care of the Custodian of the Two Holy
Mosques, King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, and His Royal Highness
Mohammed bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, Crown Prince and Prime
Minister of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, for the Palestinian people, and
out of their commitment to providing all forms of assistance and
support to the State of Palestine, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia announces
the provision of monthly financial support to the Palestinian brothers.
This support aims to address the humanitarian situation in the Gaza
Strip and its surrounding areas, alleviating the suffering caused by the
Israeli occupation and its flagrant violations of international laws,
including international humanitarian law.
The Kingdom reaffirms the
significant efforts of the Custodian of the Two Holy Mosques and HRH the
Crown Prince and Prime Minister in communicating with the international
community to cease hostilities, protect civilians, and deliver
increased humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people. Saudi Arabia
emphasizes its leadership's commitment to finding a just and
comprehensive solution to the Palestinian issue, ensuring that the
Palestinian people can obtain all their legitimate rights and establish
an independent state with East Jerusalem as its capital.
The Kingdom
underscores its unwavering commitment to the Palestinian cause, which
remains a central and top priority. Since the start of the crisis, the
Kingdom has exerted every effort to alleviate the humanitarian situation
in the Gaza Strip. By leading the ministerial committee appointed by
the extraordinary joint Arab-Islamic summit, the Kingdom successfully
rallied unified Arab and Islamic support for the Palestinian cause. This
effort resulted in several friendly countries recognizing the State of
Palestine, advocating for its full membership in the United Nations, and
calling for an end to Israeli aggression and the lifting of the
blockade on Gaza.
This assistance forms part of the ongoing support
the Kingdom has provided to the Palestinian people for humanitarian,
relief, and development purposes over the years. The total support has
exceeded $5.3 billion, demonstrating Saudi Arabia's longstanding
commitment to helping the Palestinian people.
