Kuwait has donated one million dollars to the al-Quds Palestinian University in east Jerusalem, the emirate's education minister said on Monday.
The donation was made in the presence of al-Quds rector Sari Nusseibeh, who is currently paying a visit to Kuwait, the minister said, according to KUNA.
Musaed al-Haroun said Kuwait's aid to the Palestinians is not limited to humanitarian assistance alone, but also includes empowering Palestinians and helping them achieve their independence.
Nusseibeh, for his part, hailed the Kuwaiti government for its ongoing support, the news agency said. (Albawaba.com)
