The Gaza Strip is facing a catastrophic humanitarian situation
. In a closed area with nowhere to flee and nowhere to hide, basic needs including drinking water, food, medicine and electricity are running out. The escalation of the conflict is hitting civilians hardest. They urgently need immediate and safe access to basic humanitarian assistance, including health care. Caritas Jerusalem has long been involved in providing this assistance. Proceeds from the collection will support Caritas Jerusalem in providing essential medical care and humanitarian aid in Gaza.

Why donate now

  • Despite the war, around 2 million people still live in Gaza
  • 1.9 million people have been displaced due to the attacks
  • Every fifth child in Gaza suffers from severe malnutrition
  • 92% of residential buildings are damaged or destroyed
  • Most of the healthcare infrastructure is also destroyed
  • Gaza is a sealed-off area with no way out for civilians

 


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

Caritas welcomes temporary ceasefire in Gaza: first step towards addressing the current humanitarian tragedy

After 15 months of brutal war between Israel and Hamas, a temporary ceasefire has been announced in Gaza. This brings hope to the families of hostages and much-needed relief to Gaza’s residents. However, it is only the first essential step towards achieving lasting peace and addressing the enormous humanitarian catastrophe that the enclave’s population is facing as a result of the conflict.

Movement between cities in the West Bank is increasingly challenging, and violence is escalating, says Kateřina Velíšková from Caritas Czech Republic

The West Bank faces growing challenges. Escalating violence, restricted movement, and complications in the operations of humanitarian organisations are severely affecting local communities. The ongoing conflict in Gaza continues to significantly worsen the situation in the West Bank. We spoke with Kateřina Velíšková, Regional Manager of Caritas Czech Republic for the Middle East, who recently visited the region, about the current situation, the daily lives of local people, and the support provided by Caritas.
