The Royal Palace in Jordan released photos of Queen Rania donating her own blood to the victims of the Israeli offensive in 
Gaza.
This may have been a personal moment for the Queen, herself of Palestinian origin.
“To be limited to expressing sympathies with the people of Gaza is shameful because they don’t need to be felt sorry for, they need us to act and help, and I know that we can do more,” Queen Rania wrote in an article published in Jordanian newspapers.
The Queen’s husband, King Abdullah II, also donated blood this past Monday. In addition, the King ordered the military to set up an hospital in Gaza.
It is said that 16 aid trucks Jordan sent on Monday have already arrived in Gaza.
Since Israel unleashed its massive aerial attack on Saturday following persistent rocket fire from Gaza, at least 363 Palestinians, including 39 children, have been killed and 1,720 wounded, according to Gaza medics.
