A Philanthropic UAE Sheikh Sends Assistance To The Victims Of Hargeysa Bombing

 

ABU DHABI, November 03, 2008 – One of the most philanthropic members of the Abu Dhabi Royal family has ordered urgent financial assistance for the victims of the recent triple suicide bombings that rocked the town of Hargeysa.

According to reliable sources that spoke to Awdalnews, the emergency assistance of U.S$ 150,000 was sent through the Al Ain National Wildlife under the instructions of His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Al Nahyan, UAE Deputy Prime Minister.

Sheikh Hamdan had also previously sent two rigs to Hargeysa to help drill water wells for the Somali people in Hargeysa and its environs.

Like all the members of the Arab League the UAE doesn't recognize the breakaway Hargeysa government of Somaliland , but it always sends humanitarian assistance to the people there.

At least 20 people died in attacks that targeted the presidential palace, government security posts, UN offices and an Ethiopian consular unit in Hargeysa.
