The UAE continues to help the families of innocent people and martyrs caught up in the fighting in Yemen. As part of intensive efforts to normalise life in Aden, the Emirates Red Crescent is assisting families in opening businesses to improve their financial situation. The Emirates Red Crescent agreed to back 15 projects in phase one with a budget of approximately AED 20,000 for each project. This follows the organisation’s contribution of AED 200,000 to a home for the elderly, covering food, petrol, and air-conditioning for six months.
