E.U. Will Participate in Maritime Corridor to Aid Gaza
The European Union will join the U.S., the United Arab Emirates and other partner countries in launching a sea corridor to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza.
-
We are facing a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. And we stand by the innocent civilians in Palestine. And this is why Europe is financing a major humanitarian aid effort for Palestinians in Gaza and in the region — 250 million euros this year alone. But the key challenge is to get the aid to the people on the ground in Gaza. And we know the difficulties faced at the land borders in Gaza, be it through the Rafah border crossing or through the Jordan road corridor. And that is why today the Republic of Cyprus, the European Commission, the United Arab Emirates and the United States — of course, supported by other critical partners, announced our intent to open the maritime corridor to deliver much needed additional amounts of humanitarian assistance by sea.
