Jeddah, 11 Dhu-AlQa'dah,1437 AH, 14 August,2016 , SPA -- The International Islamic Relief Organization of the Muslim World League distributed new aid to people affected by the drought in Mauritania, which included 4,000 food baskets that benefited 20,000 people in many cities, villages and rural areas. The Secretary General of the Organization Ihsan bin Saleh Tayib explained that the Organization had sent a delegation from the General Secretariat to carry out this humanitarian mission towards those affected by the disaster that struck most of the country due to some natural factors including the scarcity of rainfall through consecutive years, which led to the spread of this wave of drought in most agricultural land. -- SPA 13:58 LOCAL TIME 10:58 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
