During the COVID-19 pandemic, Emirates Humanitarian City served as one of the UAE’s key humanitarian initiatives, hosting nationals of several brotherly and friendly countries who had been evacuated and providing them with accommodation, healthcare and preventive services within an integrated environment that upheld the highest standards of health and safety.

Following the international evacuation operations in the wake of the events in Afghanistan in August 2021, Emirates Humanitarian City played a pivotal role in hosting Afghan nationals and providing them with a wide range of humanitarian services, including accommodation, healthcare, social support and education, until they were able to continue to their final destinations.

As part of the United Arab Emirates’ humanitarian efforts to support the Palestinian people, Emirates Humanitarian City received patients, the wounded, and their companions arriving from the Gaza Strip, and provided them with an integrated system of humanitarian, health, and social services within a safe environment that preserves their dignity and meets their various needs.
