KUALA LUMPUR: Celebrity preacher Ebit Lew has been given travel approval to provide humanitarian aid to the Palestinian people.

Deputy foreign minister Kamarudin Jaffar said Lew’s delegation must adhere to SOPs.

He said he received a call from Lew on Monday informing him about the humanitarian mission, scheduled from yesterday until Sunday.

“The humanitarian mission to Egypt is to provide aid to the Palestinians who have been badly affected by the Israeli regime’s attack on Gaza. The activities to be carried out have been planned directly with non-governmental organisations (NGOs) in Egypt .

“Ustaz Ebit Lew made all the necessary preparations in collaboration with his NGO partners in Egypt,” he said.

Kamarudin said although the mission was a private initiative, the delegation had been advised to stay in touch and follow security orders issued by the Malaysian embassy in Cairo. - FMT
