The Arab News reported, Foreign Minister Yoshimasa Hayashi on April 1 said that Japan decided to extend emergency grant aid of $3.35 million (¥400 million) to the Gaza Strip, “where the humanitarian situation is significantly deteriorating due to the COVID-19 pandemic and floods."

The humanitarian assistance for “vulnerable Palestinians” includes supporting patients with COVID-19 and providing healthcare services. Hayashi said it will be extended through the E-Health system, including primary healthcare, through the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA).
