Many aids are on the way
The Warm Winter campaign is one of many initiatives by the UAE. The UAE thinks ahead of circumstances. This is in order to provide those in need with everything they need during a harsh winter. The UAE Embassy in Rome has begun providing winter assistance to needy families and individuals. Helping 15,000 people in Italy, San Marino and North Macedonia.
The scheme forms part of the winter relief initiative initiated by the ERC to support citizens afflicted by the cold in 25 countries and has been organized by the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates in Rome, the ERC, the Italian Red Cross, civil protection agencies, various public bodies and non-profit organizations.
Dr. Mohammed Ateeq Al Falahi, ERC Secretary-General, said that the policy is valid on the basis of Sheikh Hamdan’s directives and supervision.
He added that during the year, Sheikh Hamdan is keen to help those affected and provide for their basic needs. But he instructed the ERC to prioritize winter provisions. As the people affected remain in camps and other places that lack heating.
