Charity Projects in
Palestine |
The humanitarian situation in Palestine is
deteriorating to a new low due to the continuing crisis, brought
about by the inhumane aggression and destruction of Palestinian
infrastructure, especially in Gaza. Over 140,000 Palestinian civil
servants, who support one million people, have been left without a
salary. Those in Gaza have suffered the most and are facing daily
shortages of food, water, electricity and medical supplies.
