Middle East: 100 aid groups urge 'decisive action' in Gaza DW 07/23/2025
Briefly

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza has elicited condemnation from over 100 aid groups and human rights organizations, blaming Israel and the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation for the deteriorating conditions. With a population of nearly 2 million, Gaza faces shortages in essential goods. Organizations including Doctors without Borders urge immediate action to improve access to food, water, and medical supplies while ending the siege and establishing a ceasefire. Reports have emerged of violence against Palestinians seeking aid, with conflicting blame between Gaza's civil defense and Israeli forces.
Exactly two months since the Israeli government-controlled scheme, the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, began operating, 109 organizations are sounding the alarm, urging governments to act: open all land crossings; restore the full flow of food, clean water, medical supplies, shelter items and fuel through a principled, UN-led mechanism; end the siege, and agree to a ceasefire now.
Palestinians are trapped in a cycle of hope and heartbreak, waiting for assistance and ceasefires, only to wake up to worsening conditions. It is not just physical torment, but psychological. Survival is dangled like a mirage.
