Nearly 600 Palestinians were killed and nearly 3,000 injured after an escalation in violence across Palestine started on Saturday, Oct. 7, 2023. The situation is still unfolding and remains volatile. Unfortunately, the toll is only expected to get worse.
Islamic Relief is working to prepare an emergency response to provide aid to affected families.
In Gaza specifically, millions of Palestinians find themselves in harm’s way: Electricity has been cut off, resources are low, and bombings have continued to cause added destruction and devastation. While there’s a lot of uncertainty right now, one thing is clear: Palestinians will need our help, and we need to be there to provide them with humanitarian support.
Our teams and local partners are on standby, ready to provide aid as soon as they are able. Islamic Relief has been a lifeline for Palestinian communities since the ’90s, helping them cope with the devastating effects of occupation, blockade, and repeated conflicts, and through your donations, we can continue to be that lifeline during their time of immense need.
Stay tuned to this page for updates, and please donate to our Palestine Humanitarian Aid fund to show your support.
