RIYADH: A team from the Saudi aid agency KSrelief arrived in the Egyptian capital of Cairo on Tuesday to discuss the mechanism for delivering aid from the Kingdom to those affected by the Israeli action in the Gaza Strip.

KSrelief, in line with the directives of King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, has recently launched a national campaign on the Sahem platform to provide assistance to Palestinians in Gaza.

The KSrelief team met Osama Nugali, the Saudi ambassador to Egypt, to discuss ways to expedite the transportation of shelter materials, food baskets, and medical supplies through the Rafah Crossing to those affected in Gaza.

The Sahem platform had been accessed by more than 569,000 donors by Tuesday, and donations totaling more than SR404 million ($108 million) had been received.

Contributions can be made to the campaign through the platform at sahem.ksrelief.org.

Donors also have the option to transfer funds directly to the campaign’s Al-Rajhi Bank account or download the Sahem application on mobile devices from Apple’s App Store or Google Play.
