The United Arab Emirates, through its humanitarian arm—the Emirates Red Crescent (ERC)—has launched a new wave of food aid distribution in Hadhramaut, eastern Yemen, benefiting nearly 15,000 individuals from vulnerable communities. As part of the campaign, the ERC distributed 1,783 food parcels to sanitation and public works employees, with plans to expand the initiative to 2,977 parcels in the coming days. The aid targets low-income families and workers across several districts, including Mukalla, Al-Shihr, Al-Raydah, Qusay'ir, Ghayl Bawazir, and Brom Mayfa'a. The campaign is being carried out in collaboration with the Zayed Foundation for Charitable and Humanitarian Works, aiming to enhance food security and ease economic hardship in a region grappling with prolonged instability. Hamid Rashid Al Shamsi, ERC's representative in Hadhramaut, emphasized that the initiative reflects the UAE's ongoing commitment to supporting the Yemeni people, particularly amid worsening economic conditions. Local officials and beneficiaries expressed deep appreciation for the UAE's continued support, highlighting the positive impact on essential workers who often go unrecognized despite their critical role in maintaining public services. The UAE has maintained a long-standing presence in Hadhramaut, delivering aid across sectors such as healthcare, education, shelter, and economic empowerment, reinforcing its role as a key humanitarian partner in Yemen.
