Kuwaiti aid arrives in Yemen, stranded for Djibouti

SANAA, Oct 15 (KUNA) — Food and in-kind aid sent by the Kuwait Red Crescent Society (KRCS) has arrived here Saturday on its way to Djibouti on Sunday.

The KRCS had sent a team to Djibouti to assess the imacts of the drought that hit the country recently.

KRCS’s deputy officer for aid and volunteers Musaed Al-Enizi said that the Kuwaiti aid includes food, goods and drinking water.

He told KUNA that the KRCS responded to calls by the Djibouti authorities to Kuwait to help it overcome the impacts of the drought.

He added that the role played by the society is voluntary and is coordinated with the Kuwaiti embassy in Yemen and the Djibouti Red Crescent.

He indicated that this reflects the humanitarian role Kuwait plays during catastrophes.

According to Al-Enizi, a KRCS delegation will be visiting areas in Djibouti to distribute the aid for the needy.
