JAF, JHCO dispatch 40-truck food convoy to Gaza

AMMAN — The Jordan Armed Forces-Arab Army (JAF) and the Jordan Hashemite Charity Organisation (JHCO), in partnership with the World Food Programme, have dispatched a new aid convoy to Gaza.

The convoy comprised 40 trucks laden with basic food items to be distributed to the people of Gaza through partner associations and organisations in the besieged strip, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported.

JHCO Secretary-General Hussein Shibli said that the humanitarian situation in Gaza is worsening, where Gazans suffer to cover their daily needs of food.

Shibli said that the Kingdom is exerting relentless efforts to deliver more food items into the strip to face the food shortages and prevent a possible famine in Gaza, highlighting that the Strip had received a total of 1,717 trucks and 53 planes arriving via Al Arish.

JHCO continues to accept cash donations through its bank account at Bank al Etihad
