Call to continue providing aid to the Palestinian people

Call to continue providing aid to the Palestinian people

International Development and Humanitarian Aid Agencies call upon the international community and donor governments to continue providing aid to the Palestinian people.

International Development and Humanitarian Aid Agencies call upon the international community and donor governments to continue providing aid to the Palestinian people.

While the international community reacts to the recent Palestinian Legislative Council elections, international aid agencies stress that the humanitarian situation in the Palestinian territories remains grave, and may even deteriorate further if current and additional humanitarian and development activities are jeopardized. Currently, 60% of the population live under the poverty line. The humanitarian needs of the Palestinian people and their children have not changed as a result of recent political developments.

International development and humanitarian aid agencies reiterate their commitment to helping to meet the needs of the Palestinian people, and strongly urge the international community and donor governments to continue providing critical assistance.
