Qatar Charity (QC) has sent a second humanitarian convoy to Syria, as part of its ongoing “Reviving Hope” campaign to support the Syrian people. The convoy consists of 24 trucks carrying essential relief supplies, including food, warmth essentials, personal hygiene items, and medical supplies. This effort aims to address the urgent needs of the affected Syrian people in light of the difficult humanitarian conditions they are enduring.
The second convoy departed from the Turkish-Syrian border, attended by Engineer Youssef bin Ahmed Al-Hammadi, a member of the Syria Response Team. He stated that this convoy is part of Qatar Charity's "Reviving Hope" campaign. He indicated that this initiative coincides with the ongoing return of many Syrians to the areas they were forced to leave years ago, aiming to help them settle in suitable conditions and support their hopes for a better future.
Al-Hammadi expressed hope that the convoy would provide much-needed assistance to help the people cope with the harsh winter and difficult living conditions. He highlighted Qatar’s humanitarian spirit and the generosity of its people, who have supported Syria for over 13 years. He urged Qatari philanthropists to continue their support for the campaign, noting that further convoys would follow in quick succession to reach as many affected people as possible and maximize the impact."
The second convoy includes flour for bakeries and needy families, food packages with essential supplies, winter clothing and shoes for five children, personal hygiene kits, medical supplies, and non-food items. These will be distributed in Aleppo, Hama, Idlib, and surrounding areas.
This aid comes in response to the needs of over 16 million people within Syria, according to UN estimates. The campaign focuses on displaced and vulnerable families in urgent need of shelter, food, and essential services.
This convoy is an extension of the first convoy, which delivered humanitarian aid via 40 trucks just a few days ago. The third convoy, as part of the "Reviving Hope" campaign, is expected to be sent mid-next month, carrying flour bags, food baskets, personal hygiene items, non-food supplies, and winter clothing.
