Gaza Crisis Appeal

The situation in Palestine continues to deteriorate at an alarming rate. Despite enduring years of hardship, the conflict has escalated rather than waned. The people of Palestine need immediate and substantial help, more than ever before.

We at the As-Salaam Foundation are actively engaged in the West Bank, delivering essential aid to those most affected by this devastating conflict. Your support is crucial for our mission.

The Current Situation in Gaza

The situation in Gaza has been marked by ongoing conflict and humanitarian challenges. Here are some recent developments and figures:

1. Conflict Escalation: Periodic escalations of violence between Palestinian factions and Israeli forces continue to occur, resulting in casualties and widespread destruction.
2. Humanitarian Impact: The humanitarian situation remains dire, with significant shortages of essential supplies including food, water, electricity, and medical supplies. Access to healthcare and education is severely restricted.
3. Displacement: The conflict has led to the displacement of thousands of Palestinians within Gaza, exacerbating overcrowding in shelters and worsening living conditions.
4. Infrastructure Damage: Infrastructure, including homes, hospitals, schools, and water facilities, has been extensively damaged or destroyed during military operations, hampering recovery efforts.
5. Casualties: The conflict has resulted in casualties among civilians, including children and women.
6. International Response: The international community continues to call for a cessation of hostilities and supports humanitarian aid efforts to alleviate the suffering of the civilian population.

For the most current and detailed information, it is recommended to refer to recent news sources or humanitarian reports from reputable organizations monitoring the situation in Gaza.
