Volunteers from the Ministry of Infrastructure Development distributed more than 11,000 iftar meals to workers at construction sites and motorists on roads.

It was part of the Zayed Humanitarian Work Day, celebrated on the 19th of Ramadan each year in memory of the founder of the UAE, the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan.

Ministry staff also received people who returned from Umrah (pilgrimage to Makkah) and offered iftar meals to them at Ras Al Khaimah airport.

The ministry said the day also celebrates Emiratis' love for late Sheikh Zayed who always highlighted the importance of humanitarian work in strengthening social solidarity.
