The UAE has launched a humanitarian project, in coordination with UN agencies, to combat the spread of rodents and insects in the Gaza Strip as part of its ongoing efforts to reduce disease transmission and protect public health.
The project aims to implement field campaigns in displaced persons camps and densely populated areas using safe and effective methods to battle epidemic risks.
The project will confront the escalating health challenges resulting from the accumulation of waste and rubble, which pose a direct threat to vulnerable groups such as children, women and the elderly.
The launch comes as part of a series of humanitarian initiatives implemented by 'Operation Chivalrous Knight 3' in the Gaza Strip, which includes the health, water, environment, food and shelter sectors, enhancing humanitarian response efforts, supporting the improvement of health and environmental conditions, and contributing to alleviating the suffering of the Palestinian population.
