Palestinians in Gaza are being bombed, starved and displaced as Israel has continued its blockade of almost all vital supplies since early March 2025, in clear violation of international law.

Families are being burnt alive as Israeli bombs tear through health centres, tents and shelters.

Hundreds of thousands have been ordered from their homes and are living in desperate conditions.

Massacres and war crimes occur daily.

For 28 years, Islamic Relief has been working tirelessly to deliver emergency aid, health services, education, and long-term development in Palestine.

With a limited supply of food entering Gaza, Islamic Relief has explored every avenue to secure supplies locally to continue urgently needed humanitarian aid.

What is happening in Palestine right now?

Israel has turned Gaza into hell on earth. We have witnessed unimaginable death and destruction that has left the Gaza Strip in ruins, killing 62,192 Palestinians and injuring at least 157,114, with the exact figures expected to be much higher due to the number of people still missing.

Famine conditions are spreading fast, with young children starving to death.

An astonishing 1.9 million people – 9 out of 10 people – have been displaced, often multiple times, from their homes and so-called safe zones since October 2023.

Islamic Relief is on the ground

Our teams are still active on the ground continuing to deliver essential services including:

1. Sponsoring orphans in Gaza.

2. Maternal healthcare for mothers and babies.

3. Have been able to provide clean water through water trucking.

4. Delivered psychosocial support for children and women in Gaza.

5. Emergency

cash assistance for vulnerable families to purchase essentials.

6. Medical evacuations for children in Gaza to the UK for life-saving treatment.

7. Hot meals for starving families as soon as we are able to distribute them.

Since October 2023, we have provided over £46 million worth of aid and delivered over 71.5 million hot meals.

We have been providing humanitarian relief in Palestine since 1997, serving as a lifeline for communities struggling with the devastating effects of occupation, blockade and recurring conflict. As Palestinian families face fresh suffering in Gaza, Islamic Relief is calling on supporters to help us provide much-needed humanitarian aid.

With your support, Islamic Relief will remain a lifeline for Palestinian families.
