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 displaced repeatedly, widespread damage to infrastructure and 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, and in North Gaza, no aid has been allowed in at all.

Thousands of families 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.

How is Action Against Hunger responding?

We’ve been working in Gaza for more than 20 years. Since October 2023, we’ve more than doubled our staff in Gaza, and have assisted more than one million people in Gaza and the West Bank.

Through the distribution of meals and clean water, treatment of malnutrition among women and children, and support for farmers and small businesses, Action Against Hunger has been at the forefront of the response to this crisis.
