A Canadian charity providing vulnerable communities with the means to create lives of dignity, equality and sustainability, towards a more just world. 🇨🇦 🌎
Today, we have devastating news from our team in
#Gaza
. Our lifesaving water truck has been bombed. For over six months, it helped us deliver clean drinking water to tens of thousands, serving as a lifeline in northern and central Gaza.
We are grateful that our team remains unharmed. However, the challenges we face have multiplied. With our primary water truck destroyed, we are forced to rely on alternative trucks, complicating our operations and making it increasingly difficult to meet urgent needs in Gaza.
This incident shows the dangers that humanitarian workers face everyday. It's not the first time aid workers have been targeted in this crisis, and sadly, it may not be the last. We refuse to accept a reality where delivering life-saving aid comes at such a devastating cost.
"It's hard not to see this as further targeting of the international aid community."
We call on the Canadian government for support, and for humanitarian principles to be upheld.
