Cairo, Egypt - Recent As the Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement takes effect, the Egyptian Red Crescent is working diligently to deliver vital aid and supplies to the Gaza Strip, providing much-needed relief to the region. The ceasefire deal in Gaza came into effect on Jan 19, after more than 15 months of deadly strikes. In an interview with China Global Television Network (CGTN), Amal Emam, CEO of the Egyptian Red Crescent, outlined the organization's aid plan to address the dire humanitarian crisis in Gaza, including providing emergency food, shelter, and medical assistance to those affected. She highlighted that every item is crucial, but particularly essential are basic necessities such as food, water, fuel, and winter supplies to support the displaced Palestinian population. Emam noted that the Egyptian Red Crescent has been preparing for the long-term to ensure a swift and effective response, regardless of the ceasefire's outcome. Shotlist: Cairo, Egypt - Recent: 1.
