After over a year of devastating conflict, the proposed ceasefire in Gaza is a vital chance to rebuild lives and deliver urgent aid. But hope alone is not enough.

The conflict has seen unprecedented destruction, with:

  • over 46,000 people killed
  • families repeatedly internally displaced
  • widespread damage to infrastructure
  • catastrophic levels of hunger.

Before the conflict, Gaza received about 500 aid trucks a day, although this was not enough. By 2024, this had dropped to just 100 trucks a day. In North Gaza, no humanitarian aid has been allowed in at all.

Thousands of families in Gaza have been in extreme hunger for months, not knowing when or where their next meal will come from. If agreed, the ceasefire aims to increase deliveries to 600 trucks a day. But much more is needed to help rebuild lives.

£25 could provide a pillow, mattress, blanket, and breakfast and dinner for three days.
