The Dubai-based charity Dar Al Ber Society has dispatched its second relief caravan for the drought- and famine-hit Somali people. The charity had dispatched its first caravan just two weeks back.
Unlike the first caravan – which mostly focussed on securing foodstuff – the second one has a medical team that will run a mobile hospital.
Imran Mohammed Abdullah, Head of charity projects at Dar Al Ber, said the team assigned for the agricultural project met Somali officials to find out ways to avoid droughts in the future. “Special water wells will be dug to provide the water needed for planting lands with fodder to protect the animals,” he said. “Other crops will also be planted to ensure food for people.”
