The King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Center (KSRelief) on Thursday signed a SR3.24 million ($865,000) agreement to distribute winter aid packages in Yemen.

The winter bag project accord, inked with the Selah Foundation for Development, will see 5,600 parcels of blankets, jackets, and children’s hats delivered to 33,600 displaced and poor families in Sanaa, Al-Bayda, Taiz, Marib, Al-Jawf, Dhale, Shabwa, Hadramout, Lahij, Aden, and Al-Mahrah.

The agreement was signed by KSRelief’s assistant supervisor general for operations and programs, Ahmed bin Ali Al-Baiz, at the center’s premises in Riyadh, and is part of the Kingdom’s efforts, represented by KSRelief, to relieve the suffering of Yemenis during the cold winter period.
