Operation Safeena: Behind the scenes of our first maritime aid shipment to Gaza

March 20, 2024

World Central Kitchen delivered almost 200 tons of desperately needed food in northern Gaza that arrived on our first maritime aid shipment to the region. Carried on the Open Arms, the cargo was part of Operation Safeena, our effort to bring as much aid as possible to Palestinians by sea. We have provided more than 40 million meals to families in war-torn Gaza by land, sea, and air since first responding to the conflict. The opening of this maritime corridor allows us to provide millions more meals. We invite you to take a behind-the-scenes look at how we dispatched the first boat to reach Gaza in almost two decades.

Help us keep sending aid to Palestinians in need.
