Pakistani humanitarian Faisal Edhi has submitted a visa application with the Palestinian embassy in Pakistan to fly to the war-torn country and help the Palestinians.
Faisal Edhi also informed that the representatives of the Edhi foundation met with the Palestinian envoy in Islamabad and were informed that there is an urgent need for medicines in the war-torn country.
He further said that his organisation will buy food and medicine from Egypt, adding that the foundation has set aside a budget of “Rs25-30 million” for the purpose. “We do not want any support from the government as we will do everything with the help of people,” vowed Edhi.
Regarding the duration of his trip, Faisal said that the decision will be taken once the team reaches Palestine and assesses the situation there.
