In November, the head of Karachay-Cherkessia, Rashid Temrezov, announced that collection points for humanitarian aid were opening in the republic for residents of Palestine, and called on local residents to join the collection. The initiative found a response among the residents of the republic. 30 tons of humanitarian aid, purchased with money from residents of Karachay-Cherkessia, are being prepared to be sent to the residents of Palestine, the head of the republic announced on November 20, 2023. 250 tons of humanitarian aid have been sent to the residents of Palestine, including in Karachay-Cherkessia, the Ansary charity foundation reported on February 8 in its Telegram group. “The trucks set off towards Gaza. Let’s hope that this is not the last serious help. Another great example of good hearts uniting in a common cause - let us remind you that 250 tons of cargo were generated by the joint efforts of the Zakya, Territory of Mercy, and Muslims of Mordovia foundations.” with the support of the Muslim Spiritual Directorate of Mordovia, the Muftiate of North Ossetia-Alania and, of course, you, our dear ones,” the publication says. The formation of the cargo took almost two months, the report notes. The publication is illustrated with a video in which Ramazan Nauruzov, president of the Territory of Mercy Foundation, stands in front of a truck. “Today, February 8, 2024, is the last day of our delegation’s stay in Cairo, Egypt, and today all 13 vehicles from Russia are loaded and are waiting to be sent to the Rafah border checkpoint. Four vehicles from the Karachay-Cherkess Republic have been formed - with food and clothing, tents and 30 tons of flour," he said. The representative of the Ansary Foundation, Murat Bayramkulov, standing next to Nauruzov, also spoke in the video. “The vehicles have a long journey ahead, first they will arrive at [the border point] Rafah, then they will be reloaded in Palestine, all this will be inspected by the Israeli army, then they will be reloaded into Palestinian trucks,” he said. Let us recall that on October 19, 2023, the Dagestan Insan Foundation also announced a fundraiser for the Palestinians, and the very next day reported that 20 million rubles had been collected. On November 3, the head of Dagestan announced that more than 90 million rubles had been collected to help the Palestinians; on November 20, the first 30 tons of humanitarian aid were sent from the republic to the Palestinians. On November 11, the Insan Foundation announced that it was collecting aid for Palestinians who are in Egypt.
