Palestinian civilians in Gaza desperately need food, water, and other essentials.

The United States, Cyprus, the United Nations, and others are stepping up. But more must be done – and Israel must do more to secure convoys of aid bound for Gaza and keep vital land crossings open.

Humanitarian workers must be protected – and this week’s reported strike on a United Nations vehicle in Gaza that killed one aid worker and injured another must be investigated.

The same perpetrators who carried out the atrocities in this report are now surrounding El Fasher. This is an emergency. The warring parties must de-escalate and work towards peace.
