Since October 2023, Gaza has endured a catastrophic Israeli military assault that has forcibly displaced more than 1.9 million people — nearly 90% of its population. Families are surviving in tents or makeshift shelters with very little protection against the harsh winter.

The government media office in Gaza has released an update on the main statistics of the ongoing genocide perpetrated by the Israeli occupation in the Gaza Strip on day 300 of the war (Thursday 1st August, 2024).

“We are amazed by the support we are still receiving and people’s incredible generosity. We are committed to sending more funds to Gaza and the West Bank in the coming weeks.” Chris Rose writes about Amos’ emergency appeal for Gaza.

“A blog post entitled ‘Stories of Hope’ doesn’t feel right as I write this, as bombs fall across Gaza and we wake up bracing for bad news each morning.” Karin Joseph writes about a glimmer of hope in the rubble of Gaza.

“In 2022, 448 young people received vocational training from NECC. 80 graduates were placed in work placements with local businesses for on-the-job training.” Karin Joseph shares an update from our partner NECC in Gaza as part of our new Stories of Hope series.
