I am fundraising for the Al Noor Foundation's Palestine emergency appeal.

Since the 7th October, thousands of lives have been lost - including more than 1,400 Palestinian children.

Bombs continue to rain down on Gaza and nowhere is safe. Homes, schools and hospitals cannot shelter the innocent, as more than 500 men, women, children and babies have been reported dead in the sudden bombing of Al-Ahli Hospital.

With more than 10,000 people wounded and still under the rubble since, and with over half the population - more than 1 million people now displaced in Gaza - the situation is deadly. The entire population has been cut off from water, food and fuel and so many more are expected to lose their lives.

Relentless and ongoing bombardment, starvation, water contamination and the loss of life-sustaining equipment in hospitals across the region is all that faces the people of Gaza now - there is nowhere safe to go.

In the midst of this tragedy, Islamic Relief aid workers are still striving to support their sisters and brothers in Gaza. As of right now, Islamic Relief has been able to provide over 1.6 million medical items, 1,100 food vouchers, 600 food parcels, and over 100 non-essential food items to displaced families, including bedding and mattresses.

Islamic Relief have been providing humanitarian relief in the Occupied Palestinian Territory 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. Please give generously.
