Qatar Charity (QC) has distributed 6,000 food baskets to displaced families, benefiting 30,000 people in southern Gaza as part of its ongoing "How Long" campaign.
This is the second round of aid this winter from Qatar Charity, aimed at easing the suffering of internally displaced persons (IDPs) in the Gaza Strip. It comes as temperatures drop and heavy rains fall. The UNHCR has warned of a looming famine in Gaza, as people lack necessities like food to survive.
These food baskets are part of Qatar Charity's "Urgent Aid Distribution for Displaced Families in Gaza" project, carried out in partnership with the team of MERCY Worldwide. The project provides food and non-food aid to help local communities improve their quality of life.
Earlier, over 4,600 blankets, 18,000 clothing packages, and shoes for both children and adults were distributed. The aid has provided significant relief to displaced families, especially given the severe food shortage.
Qatar Charity urged individuals and companies in Qatar to support the winter campaign to reach as many needy people as possible, especially IDPs, refugees, and the vulnerable. (QNA)
