Saudi Arabia ranks second globally in humanitarian aid

  • Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah, supervisor-general of the Saudi aid agency KSrelief, emphasized that the Kingdom’s leadership in humanitarian efforts

RIYADH: Saudi Arabia ranked second globally and first in the Arab world among donor countries for humanitarian aid in 2025, leading contributions to Yemen, with 49.3 percent of total aid, and ranking second for aid to the Syrian Arab Republic, according to the UN Financial Tracking Service.

A recently released 2024 report on developmental assistance showed the Kingdom ranked second among 16 non-member donor countries and 10th globally in aid volume among all 48 donor countries, including both members and non-members.

Dr. Abdullah Al-Rabeeah, supervisor-general of the Saudi aid agency KSrelief, emphasized that the Kingdom’s leadership in humanitarian efforts reflected its commitment to generosity and prioritizing human dignity.

These figures are documented in real time on the Saudi aid platform, the region’s largest. This approach, supported by King Salman and Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, has been key in achieving these international rankings and making a tangible global impact.

Al-Rabeeah added that Saudi Arabia remained a constant source of generosity and a beacon of goodwill, committed to providing assistance to those in need worldwide.
