Gaza: Chairman of Qatar Committee for Reconstruction of Gaza, Ambassador Mohammed Al Emadi, said that the committee will start disbursing monthly cash assistance among needy families in the Gaza strip today (Thursday). Cash assistance for the month of May will be disbursed in cooperation with the Qatar Fund for Development (QFFD). 

In a statement yesterday, Ambassador Al Emadi said that the cash assistance will be provided to about 100,000 needy families in the governorates of the strip, at a rate of $100 per family.

He pointed out that the distribution process will take place through the United Nations at the distribution centres identified in the governorates of the Gaza strip, which are 300 centres and shops.

Qatar disburses a monthly humanitarian grant in support of the brotherly Palestinian families in the Gaza Strip, who are suffering from difficult economic and living conditions caused by the Israeli blockade.
