Children and the elderly are dying of starvation in Gaza.
Israel's blockade of humanitarian aid and use of starvation as a weapon of war deepens this humanitarian crisis.
Targeting innocent civilians trying to reach aid trucks worsens the situation.
The people of the region have been experiencing indescribable suffering for months.
Tens of thousands of homes were completely destroyed following intense attacks.
Four out of five people had to leave their homes.
Although most people try to seek shelter in hospitals and schools, they still cannot access basic food and needs.
As Islamic Relief, we deliver hot meals to more than 140,000 people every day.
This support is vital for families struggling with starvation.
However, this aid alone is not enough.
Many families still have to live without eating anything for days.
Every passing minute poses a much greater risk to the lives of Gazans.
Emergency aid must be increased and basic food supplies must be delivered to those in need as quickly as possible.
