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

Life in Gaza under the shadow of conflict

Numerous residents have been forced to seek refuge in hospitals, UNRWA facilities, and churches. The shortage of electricity, water, and food supplies, especially for hospitals, has exacerbated the humanitarian crisis. We are publishing an article that our colleagues at Caritas Jerusalem prepared despite the obstacles the conflict has caused them.

What life in the Gaza Strip looks like

Gaza, a strip of isolated land smaller than Prague, is home to 2.3 million people. It is one of the most densely populated areas on the planet - and in a confined space. The Gaza Strip has been described as an "open-air prison", its inhabitants have long been deprived of basic needs, which are constantly growing. What is life like in Gaza, what do its inhabitants face and how has the recent escalation of the conflict worsened the situation?

War between Israel and Hamas. Gaza faces an unprecedented humanitarian disaster

The war between Israel and Hamas is a humanitarian disaster for the civilian population of the Gaza Strip. In this closed area without escape, basic needs, including drinking water, are running out. In addition, Israel has called for over a million residents of northern Gaza to leave their homes. Caritas Jerusalem has long been active in Gaza.
