People in the Gaza Strip continue to face a catastrophic humanitarian situation.
Despite a ceasefire being in place, basic necessities remain scarce, and hundreds of thousands of people are living in makeshiftconditions without regular access to food, medicines or electricity. The long‑running conflict has had a devastating impact on civilians, and its consequences will be felt for decades to come. People needunrestricted access to humanitarian assistance, including healthcare.

Caritas Czech Republic continues to support those most in need in the Gaza Strip. The continuation of our activities is made possible by the Caritas for Gaza fundraising campaign. 

Why donate now

  • Despite the war, around 2 million people still live in Gaza
  • During the conflict, 1.9 million people have been displaced
  • Two-thirds of the population are living in camps in makeshift conditions 
  • 92% of residential buildings have been damaged or destroyed
  • Healthcare facilities are operating only to a limited extent
  • Deliveries of humanitarian aid remain insufficient and unstable. 

 


In Gaza, suffering is everywhere but so is resilience. Through Caritas Czech Republic, we help people reclaim their dignity, one step at a time. Locals now recognize Czechia not just by name, but by the healing it brings. Your support means hope in the darkest of days.

Ola, Case Management Coordinator of Caritas Czech Republic

How Caritas Czech Republic helps

We are one of the few Czech organisations that has its own team in Gaza, which continues to provide assistance to people on the ground. We have long‑term cooperation with the Palestinian organisation Sawa. In 2025, we also worked with Caritas Jerusalem and the organisation Juzoor to provide basic healthcare. We are currently focusing on: 

  • Individual social and psychological support (case social work)
  • Crisis telephone intervention
  • Provision of basic living needs (such as accommodation and access to healthcare)

Gaza in crisis: Caritas Czech Republic sustains hope where it is needed most

Since October 2023, the Gaza Strip has been facing a profound humanitarian crisis. The civilian population is repeatedly displaced and faces a severe shortage of essential resources, including drinking water, food, medicine, and electricity. The area is entirely cut off from the outside world, with no safe refuge and no means of escape. In this environment, Caritas Czech Republic is working to assist. With its team on the ground in Gaza, the organisation delivers basic healthcare, psychosocial support, and humanitarian aid.

Three dead in shelling of church in Gaza: Statement from Caritas Internationalis

Caritas Czech Republic shares the official statement from Caritas Internationalis regarding the tragic shelling of the Holy Family Church in Gaza, in which three civilians lost their lives. The church had served as a refuge for hundreds of people of various faiths. The statement calls for the protection of civilians, respect for humanitarian law, and an immediate ceasefire.

Gaza: Starvation or Gunfire - This is Not a Humanitarian Response

Caritas Czech Republic joined a call of more than 200 NGOs for immediate action to end the deadly Israeli distribution scheme (including the so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation) in Gaza, revert to the existing UN-led coordination mechanisms, and lift the Israeli government’s blockade on aid and commercial supplies. The 400 aid distribution points operating during the temporary ceasefire across Gaza have now been replaced by just four military-controlled distribution sites, forcing two million people into overcrowded, militarized zones where they face daily gunfire and mass casualties while trying to access food and are denied other life-saving supplies.

7 things you need to know about the genocide in Gaza

Genocide is one of the most serious crimes under international law. It refers to deliberate acts intended to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group. Genocide does not only mean mass killings; it also includes causing serious bodily or mental harm, creating living conditions intended to destroy the group, and preventing access to humanitarian aid, food, water, or medical care. What is currently happening in Gaza meets these criteria. The notion that a nation that has itself been a victim of genocide cannot commit such acts against others is false.

People in Gaza are dying of hunger. Israel’s blockade of humanitarian aid poses a risk of genocide

The situation of Gaza’s residents has reached a critical point. For almost three months now, there has been a complete blockade of humanitarian aid deliveries by Israel. This is in stark violation of international humanitarian law and the rulings of the International Court. Hunger must not be used as a weapon of war. Before the debates on whether this constitutes genocide conclude, thousands more people, most of them children, will needlessly die in Gaza.
