#Gaza has been cut off from aid for over 2 months. Deliberately preventing the access of lifesaving aid is being used as a weapon, and the suffering of Palestinian civilians in Gaza is worsening by the day. Civilians and hostages must be protected. Share now.

For people like Hawa, fleeing conflict in #Sudan, ShelterBox provides a place to rest, heal and be with her children. We're one of the few charities focused solely on #EmergencyShelter - because shelter is more than a roof, it's the foundation for life, family and community. ๐Ÿ
