Recent clashes have increased the already enormous humanitarian needs in Gaza while the Covid-19 pandemic continues to affect the Palestinian community.

The violence claimed the lives of over 200 people in Gaza. Many of them were children.

Our teams are ready to respond where we can with food, water, sanitation and shelter to help people who were caught up in the crossfire.

Help us to support the most vulnerable people.  

What are the most urgent needs in Gaza right now?

• Ensuring the treatment of those injured in the fighting and others in need of healthcare, including Covid-19 cases.
• Restoring vital infrastructure, including the water and electricity supplies.
• Protecting populations trapped in conflict areas and providing mental health support.
• Providing families with emergency food, water and shelter.
