Hello,

I’m sure you’ll have seen the news coming out of Israel and the occupied territories. The images and reports are horrific. The violence directed against civilians is appalling and cannot be justified. If the situation continues to escalate, then civilians on both sides will suffer immensely.

People in the region urgently need your help. Fighting is putting lives and livelihoods at risk.

Please give now to help protect and save lives.

The ICRC has been present in Israel and the occupied territories since 1967. As a neutral, independent, humanitarian organization, the ICRC visits detainees in Israeli and Palestinian places of detention. We also help improve access to essential services like water and electricity in Gaza and support livelihood projects throughout the occupied territories.

If you’re able to give something to help, please do so now.

People in Israel and the occupied territories need your help. By acting together, we can get help to where it’s needed most. We count on your support.

Thank you,
