Over the past year, conflict has utterly devastated lives.

In Gaza:

• People are dying of hunger, disease and injuries caused by the conflict.
• Receiving medical care is near impossible.
• Ninety percent of the population - 1.9 million people - have been displaced.
• Food and clean water are scarce.
• Every single person is dealing with the unimaginable trauma of daily life in a conflict zone.

In Lebanon:

• More than a million people have been forced from their homes in recent weeks.
• Whole families are sleeping outside in open spaces with little idea if or when they might be able to return home.
• Airstrikes have killed more than 2,200 people and injured thousands more.
• Shelters are overwhelmed.
• Hospitals are struggling to treat the countless injured.

Our colleagues and partners in Gaza and Lebanon are working relentlessly in their communities, often risking their lives:

• Distributing bottles of clean water, food, and bedding.
• Providing hygiene essentials like shampoo, period products, toothpaste, and soap to prevent deadly diseases.
• Establishing access to clean water in affected areas.
• Offering trauma counselling to those in need.
• Engaging in additional life-saving efforts under extreme conditions.

The work they are doing in such horrific circumstances is remarkable.

The humanitarian need in Gaza and Lebanon has never been greater. Donating whatever you can will help our colleagues and partners in the region respond within their communities.
