A UAE charity is distributing tens of thousands of iftar meals to low-income workers at their accommodation throughout Ramadan.
Dar Al Ber Society is planning on delivering 60,000 meals to labourers who would have typically relied on mosques for iftar meals but cannot get them this year after they were closed to prevent the spread of coronavirus.
Packages of vegetarian and non-vegetarian meals are being delivered to labour accommodation across Dubai, including Jebel Ali, Sonapur, Al Quoz and Dubai Investments Park.
So far, the organisation has been able to deliver daily meals to more than 35,000 labourers. It aims to increase this to 60,000 people fed daily.
“Providing food to the needy is one of the main focus of Dar Al Ber Society's humanitarian activities. We decided to help labourers affected by the present circumstances,” said Dr Hisham Al Zahrani, deputy director of the social sector at Dar Al Ber Society.
The organisation is also distributing hygiene kits, consisting of sanitisers, masks, soaps, toothpastes and toothbrushes, to the workers.
“We would like to thank Dar Al Ber Society for providing us with Iftar meals at our doorsteps. Now we get food inside our rooms without going out of our camp. This is a big relief for all of us at this time”, said Abdul, a supervisor at a labour accommodation in Al Quoz,

UK's plans to cut net migration
Under the UK government’s proposals, migrants will have to spend 10 years in the UK before being able to apply for citizenship.
Skilled worker visas will require a university degree, and there will be tighter restrictions on recruitment for jobs with skills shortages.
But what are described as "high-contributing" individuals such as doctors and nurses could be fast-tracked through the system.
Language requirements will be increased for all immigration routes to ensure a higher level of English.
Rules will also be laid out for adult dependants, meaning they will have to demonstrate a basic understanding of the language.
The plans also call for stricter tests for colleges and universities offering places to foreign students and a reduction in the time graduates can remain in the UK after their studies from two years to 18 months.
