The Emirates Red Crescent (ERC) has boosted its Ramadan programme at the Sheikh Zayed Mosque in Solo, Indonesia, due to the increased number of worshippers in the last ten days of Ramadan.

They've added 2,000 extra iftar meals a day, with 12,000 now distributed daily inside the mosque and the surrounding area.

Meals have been provided daily since the beginning of Ramadan, following the directives of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Ruler's Representative in Al Dhafra Region and Chairman of the ERC.
