São Paulo – Brazil is donating 1,000 tons of rice to Gaza. The donations have been collected via three auctions held this Wednesday by the National Supply Company (Conab), with coordination from the Brazilian Foreign Ministry.
The rice should reach Palestine on November 13th. In this type of auction, Conab buys processed rice in return for slightly larger amounts of the unprocessed kind. Cuba will also receive 1,340 tons of the rice raised in today’s auctions.
