Saving Lives in Times of Calamities

A natural disaster or political conflict can result in significant loss of life and damage to property, often leading to considerable economic impact. The severity of this impact depends on the affected population’s capacity for recovery and the available infrastructure. In response to such emergencies, DWC collaborates with various NGOs to provide swift humanitarian aid, often within a day’s notice. We have undertaken numerous projects to deliver humanitarian assistance. Below is a description of our typical operations. Upon receiving a request, our team contacts our preferred partners to determine the availability of aircraft based on the distance and types of goods to be transported. All such projects are typically delivered within 48 hours of the request. In 2017, in collaboration with a United Nations mission, we delivered over 66 tons of high-energy biscuits and medicines to distressed shelters in Somalia using a B727-200 aircraft. In 2018, over 100 tons of aid relief were transported from Dubai to Angola on an IL76 aircraft, assisting more than 11,000 people fleeing the Congo due to political conflict. That same year, DWC delivered over 300 metric tons of aid on five flights for HM Mohammed VI of Morocco to East Africa using an IL76 aircraft.
