Emirates Red Crescent has delivered aid to families affected by heavy rains in Jordan.

A UAE response team based at the joint Emirati-Jordanian camp for Syrian refugees in Mrajeeb Al Fhood has provided winter supplies to a group of families in temporary tents at Al Azraq in the Zarqa Governorate in Jordan, reported the state news agency, Wam. Recent torrential rains in the country had washed away their tents.

The relief team responded after receiving a call for help from the area on Tuesday. The aid included warm winter items and food.

Between the start of the 2020 IPL on September 20, and the end of the Pakistan Super League this coming Thursday, the Zayed Cricket Stadium has had an unprecedented amount of traffic.
Never before has a ground in this country – or perhaps anywhere in the world – had such a volume of major-match cricket.
And yet scoring has remained high, and Abu Dhabi has seen some classic encounters in every format of the game.
