Qatar will start disbursing the August batch of its cash grant to Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Sunday.

The Qatar Committee for the Reconstruction of Gaza will distribute the grant among families in need in Gaza in coordination with the Qatar Fund for Development.

Committee Chairman Ambassador Mohammed Al Emadi said cash assistance will be provided to about 100,000 families in the governorates of the Gaza Strip, at a rate of $100 per family.

The process will take place through the United Nations at around 300 distribution centres throughout the Palestinian territory.

Qatar disburses a monthly humanitarian grant in support of Palestinian families in the Gaza Strip, which is suffering from the difficult economic and living conditions caused by the Israeli blockade.
