Foreign Minister Vivian Balakrishnan announced Singapore’s fourth tranche of humanitarian aid for Gaza at a handover ceremony attended by Singapore’s Representative to the Palestinian Authority Hawazi Daipi, Chargé d’Affaires of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) Embassy in Singapore Dhabia Al Mehairbi and Honorary Consul of the Republic of Cyprus in Singapore Raja Bose.
The fourth tranche will comprise approximately 300 metric tons (MT) of halal-certified canned sardines and 1,000 MT of white rice. These essential supplies will be transported via commercial sea freight from Singapore to Larnaca, Cyprus, for onward shipment to Gaza, in cooperation with the UAE and Cyprus.

This latest aid is part of Singapore’s ongoing effort to support humanitarian aid operations to the civilian population in Gaza. The last tranche of aid, consisting of food and critical supplies, was delivered to Gaza in March 2024, in coordination with the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan. With this latest tranche of aid, Singapore has so far provided more than S$17 million in donations to Gaza.

The fourth tranche will comprise approximately 300 metric tons (MT) of halal-certified canned sardines and 1,000 MT of white rice.

Singapore reaffirms its continued commitment to providing assistance and support to civilians in Gaza, working closely with our partners. We reiterate our call for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire, as well as the unconditional, immediate and safe release of all hostages. We also urge all parties to allow the urgent, safe and unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid to affected civilians in Gaza.
