Dr. Sultan Al Neyadi affirmed the UAE's approach and historical commitment to supporting Palestinian people, noting that the UAE has been providing relief and food aid to the residents of Gaza Strip since the beginning of the crisis and providing all necessities to alleviate their suffering during these dire circumstances.
