Gaza GenoLIE: The campaign fighting “a modern blood libel”

A growing international coalition of more than 100 organizations says the accusation that Israel commits genocide in Gaza has become a weapon against Israel and Jews worldwide.

The UAE has launched an education campaign titled "With Knowledge We Rise" in Gaza to support pupils as the new school year commences following a challenging year for education in the enclave. The campaign, carried out through Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 with assistance from Sharjah Charity International, aims to provide pupils with essential school supplies, such as bags and stationery, to facilitate their return to learning.

Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 shared celebratory footage on X showcasing the start of the school year and the distribution of resources to students. Azzam Shaath, spokesman for the operation's Support Committee, expressed congratulations to pupils and families on the beginning of the new academic year. Dr Rami Fares, supervisor of educational initiatives at the committee, expressed hope that the new year would bring stability to education in Gaza, noting the significant challenges faced by the educational system.

The UAE has provided substantial humanitarian aid to Gaza, with 903 tonnes of assistance sent in five convoys and a total of $3.9 billion in aid accounting for 46% of global assistance. Operation Chivalrous Knight 3 marks its 1,000-day of humanitarian support for the Palestinian people.
