Saudi Arabia donates 35 tons of dates to Mauritius
Vice-Prime Minister Dr Mohammad Anwar Husnoo and Vice Consul General of Saudi Arabia in Mauritius, Mr Ziyad Sulaiman Bin Hamad.

The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has donated 35 tons of dates to Mauritius, through the King Salman Humanitarian Aid & Relief Centre.

Vice-Prime Minister Husnoo expressed gratitude to King Salman Humanitarian Aid & Relief Centre for the generous donation while highlighting that this act symbolises the close bilateral ties that bind the two countries.

This initiative, he said, is much meaningful for the Muslim community as dates is related to the Islamic tradition and are used at the time of breaking the fast of Ramadan.

Due to ongoing disruptions in international freights, only 10 tons of dates have reportedly reached Mauritius so far, with an additional 25 tons expected soon. 

The dates will be distributed to mosques across the island.
