Hamilton visits Egypt to see Gaza aid operations
Lewis Hamilton has arrived in Egypt to visit humanitarian aid facilities supporting relief efforts for Gaza. The Ferrari driver was welcomed at Al-Arish International Airport by North Sinai Governor Dr Khaled Megawer, according to a statement from the North Sinai Governorate.
Hamilton is scheduled to visit the Rafah border crossing to learn about the Egyptian Red Crescent's work coordinating and delivering humanitarian assistance to Gaza. He is also expected to visit the organisation's logistics warehouses in Al-Arish, where supplies are prepared before being transported into the Gaza Strip.
Hamilton has previously voiced support for Palestine. Ahead of the United States Grand Prix in October, he said: "I think we need to make sure we're pushing to free Congo, free Sudan, free Syria, free Palestine." His latest visit follows a trip to Jordan in December 2025 with the British Red Cross, and comes days after the Sao Paulo Grand Prix.
