The humanitarian pause in Gaza has expired, plunging its residents into a worsening crisis.

The pause gave UNFPA a brief opportunity to deliver sustained humanitarian aid into Gaza and address the urgent public health catastrophe. With an estimated 1.7 million people displaced and 1 million children on the brink of a nutrition crisis, an increase in relief was urgently needed.

Thanks to your support, UNFPA has already distributed thousands of Dignity Kits, Emergency Birth Kits, Postpartum Kits, and doses of critical medicines to ensure safe births. And we are still working to deliver care.

But with conflict resuming, women and girls are at heightened risk and need humanitarian support now more than ever.

Will you make an emergency humanitarian gift today to support women and girls surviving this crisis and crises around the world? Your gifts are making a difference in the darkest of times.

UNFPA deeply regrets the end of the humanitarian pause in Gaza. We condemn the violence in Israel and Gaza, including all sexual violence against women, and echo the UN Secretary-General’s call for a sustained humanitarian ceasefire and for the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages by Hamas.

Thank you for remaining committed to standing with every woman and girl, no matter what.
