Multi-platinum global recording artist Abel Tesfaye, better known as The Weeknd, has pledged another $2 million to the Gaza Strip from his XO Humanitarian Fund. The latest donation aims to supply 18 million loaves of bread to families trapped in the ongoing war.

According to Variety, The Weeknd’s contribution was made in tandem with the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP), which will provide 1,500 metric tonnes of fortified wheat flour to feed more than 157,000 Palestinians.

In December last year, The Weeknd had pledged $2.5 million, equivalent to four million emergency meals, towards the Gaza Strip amid severe food shortages. The singer also made an urgent appeal to fans to provide personal donations amid the crisis overshadowing the region. According to WFP, more than 1 million Palestinians face catastrophic levels of hunger across Gaza and need urgent support.
