RCA distributes aid to 400 displaced Syrian families north of Jordan

Amman: The UAE Red Crescent Authority's relief team in coordination with the concerned Jordanian authorities of the displaced Syrian affairs, has distributed a huge amount of dates and relief items among more than 400 displaced Syrian families in Mafraq City near the Syrian-Jordanian borders. The distribution process, which included blankets and shoes, went on at ease by following the mechanism that gives priority to the underprivileged families. The assistance comes in the light of the constant relief programmes and projects, being implemented by the Red Crescent Authority (RCA) for the benefit of displaced Syrians in Jordan. The RCA oversees the Muraijeb-Al-Fhood camp, which includes over 4000 Syrian refugees and in the near future the camp will be expanded to include more than 8000 refugees. – Emirates News Agency, WAM
