We’re supporting service providers to repair critical infrastructure in Gaza that has been damaged during the escalation. This means ensuring access to safe water for the population and preventing the collapse of the sewage system which could lead to an outbreak of diseases.

Health care workers must be able to carry out their life-saving work! They are not part of the fight and are protected under International Humanitarian Law. @PalestineRCS @Mdais

We asked Reema, our favourite kanun player in Gaza, to take the @WHO 's #SafeHands handwash challenge. As always, she brought her musical talent to the activity. Wash your hands like Rima and help fight #COVID19 ! Watch Reema on the kanun: #WorldWaterDay

People - exhausted from sleepless nights, from constant fear, worry, and grief - need a window during which they can go outside without fear of being killed or injured, or of witnessing death or injury to others. Statement from @FCarboniICRC

We are deeply disheartened to see yet another cycle of demolitions affecting people in Humsa al-Foqa. Continued house demolitions in Humsa and across the West Bank compromise human dignity and damage livelihood capacities.
