The United Arab Emirates has continued to strengthen its humanitarian efforts in support of the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip through Operation Noble Knight 3, implementing targeted initiatives aimed at alleviating the effects of the war and rehabilitating the injured.
During the first half of 2026, the operation completed procedures to fit 80 prosthetic limbs for residents of the Gaza Strip who had lost limbs as a result of the war.
The assistance included advanced prosthetic hands and legs, provided to beneficiaries using the latest medical technologies. Recipients were enrolled in a comprehensive rehabilitation programme to help them adapt to their new limbs, enabling them to regain mobility, resume daily activities, reintegrate into society, and improve their quality of life.
This humanitarian initiative falls within the ongoing efforts of Operation Noble Knight 3 to alleviate human suffering in the Gaza Strip, particularly for those who sustained severe injuries resulting in the loss of a limb — circumstances that require specialised rehabilitation programmes to help them return to normal life.
The modern prosthetic limbs provided by the UAE represent an important step in the physical and psychological recovery of beneficiaries, helping them regain their independence and return to work and social activities, thereby enhancing their ability to overcome the consequences of their injuries.
The initiative reflects the UAE's firm approach to providing humanitarian and relief support to affected peoples, grounded in values of solidarity and mutual human responsibility, and its commitment to delivering all forms of assistance that meet the urgent needs of those affected — whether through medical aid or rehabilitation and care programmes.
These efforts further consolidate Operation Noble Knight 3's continued implementation of a series of humanitarian, health, and relief initiatives in the Gaza Strip, contributing to the alleviation of residents' suffering and supporting the healthcare system and rehabilitation programmes.
They also reaffirm the UAE's commitment to standing by its Palestinian brothers and sisters in all circumstances, through sustainable projects aimed at improving the lives of those affected and empowering them to restore hope and continue their lives normally.
