Digital Desk: Amid the blazing conflict between Hamas and Israel, India dispatched humanitarian help to the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Sunday. The aid includes 32 tonnes of disaster relief materials and 6.5 tonnes of medical supplies. Egypt is anticipated to be the country's entry point for the aid package.

"An IAF C-17 flight carrying nearly 6.5 tonnes of medical aid and 32 tonnes of disaster relief material for the people of Palestine departs for El-Arish airport in Egypt," wrote Arindam Bagchi, the spokesperson for the External Affairs Ministry, on X.



The Gaza Strip shares the Rafah border crossing with Egypt, which is how the goods intended for Palestinians will enter the Strip.

"Essential life-saving medicines, surgical items, tents, sleeping bags, tarpaulins, sanitary utilities, water purification tablets, among other necessary items," are included in the aid stated Bagchi.

Three days after Prime Minister Narendra Modi met with President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority, India has sent humanitarian help to Palestine. During their conversation that took place on Thursday, Prime Minister Modi declared that India would keep providing aid to the Palestinians. 

Additionally, he expressed sympathy for the civilian deaths in the Gaza Strip brought on by the hospital bombing.
