Dr. Abdulaziz Hadi said that this visit comes out of a humanitarian standpoint and on the occasion of the World Refugee Day.

He stressed that the governorates of the South have embraced many refugees fleeing the scourge of war in search of security and dignity, which the governorates of the South have.
Abdulaziz praised the efforts made by the High Commissioner for Refugees to manage the camp and provide protection, food, health and educational needs to the refugees.
