Malta's Knights Hospitaller donates 24 tons of rice to Israel's Leket | ||
2024-01-21 | ||
[Jpost] In a heartwarming gesture of solidarity, the Maltese Knights Hospitaller of the Order of St John of Jerusalem announced a generous donation of 24 tons of rice to Leket Israel to help support the people of Israel during the ongoing Israel-Hamas War.
The Order of Knights of the Hospital of Saint John of Jerusalem, commonly known as the Knights Hospitaller, is a medieval and early modern Catholic military order, founded in Jerusalem in the 12th century. The prior, expressing the Order's commitment to standing by the people of Israel, highlighted the significance of the donation as a symbol of support during difficult times. "The entire 24-ton shipment of rice was financed and delivered at the request of our Governor of the Nevada Commanderie Colonel David Flippo
Flippo, who sponsored this Food Aid Mission, is also a Knight of the Order. Flippo, known for his unwavering support for Israel and the Jewish people, specifically requested that the Knights personally deliver, unload, and assist in the immediate distribution of the donation to Leket's compound. The prior extended well wishes, stating, "May the Lord continue to protect God’s Chosen People from the challenges that they are facing. And May you continue to protect the Holy Land. Shalom." Israel's agricultural sector has suffered greatly since the Hamas attacks of October 7. The evacuation of northern and southern communities, alongside the departure of foreign agriculture workers has left Israel's food economy desperately short. Leket Israel, the National Food Bank, is the leading food rescue organization in Israel. | ||
