RIYADH: Saudi aid agency KSrelief is intensifying efforts to deliver critical aid to Lebanon and Gaza while supporting medical assistance needs in Turkiye and Sri Lanka.
The 23rd aid plane from Riyadh arrived at Beirut-Rafic Hariri International Airport on Wednesday, carrying food, shelter, and medical supplies for people displaced by Israeli airstrikes.
KSrelief also continues to provide essential food baskets to families in northern Gaza amid Israel’s ongoing conflict with the Palestinian people.
In Turkiye, KSrelief's volunteer medical team set a world record by implanting 42 cochlear devices in 14 hours as part of the Saudi Sama’a Volunteer Program in Reyhanli, reported the Saudi Press Agency.
Over the week-long campaign, the team implanted a total of 122 cochlear devices for children, reflecting the Kingdom’s commitment to global medical aid.
In Sri Lanka, KSrelief recently concluded the Saudi Noor Volunteer Project to combat blindness in Hambantota, examining 4,500 cases, distributing 600 pairs of eyeglasses, and performing 503 specialized eye surgeries.
