The agreement is set to benefit 31,333 needy families. The deal aims to ensure that Zakat Al-Fitr is distributed to the neediest individuals in Yemen, which is suffering a humanitarian crisis. Elsewhere, the agency sent its seventh aid shipment through the Saudi relief sea bridge to Sudan on Thursday. The shipment consisted of 12 refrigerated trucks carrying 14,960 food baskets, weighing 524 tonnes. It arrived at Sudan’s Suakin Port after departing from Jeddah Islamic Port.
