Ongoing Crisis

Israel's Gaza offensive, launched last October, has killed over 41,000 people (mostly women and children) and injured 95,000, according to local health authorities. The blockade has caused severe shortages of food, clean water, and medicine, displacing almost the entire population.

International Community Urged to Intervene

The UN Security Council's demand for an immediate ceasefire remains unheeded. The international community is called upon to take action to halt the humanitarian crisis.
