"Blocking aid from reaching Gaza is destroying its health system, which cannot meet people's needs. (...) people with chronic illnesses, pregnant women with complications, children falling sick from infectious diseases linked to the deplorable conditions in which they are forced to live." (MSF - May, 2024) "Almost nothing is getting in anymore. (...) a kilo of tomatoes costs nearly $20 [£16] (...)," said one UN official. (Guardian - Nov. 2024). Note: Price of food has shot up badly in just 2 months. In September, 1kg of tomatoes was ~$12. Before Oct. 2023 it was $1
After a year of deteriorating conditions and a severe lack of aid, Mohammed Al-Habil (@alhabil) & his family are in an incredibly dangerous situation. He and his wife are parents to 3 very young children: Ahmed (8), Osama (6), & Mira (4). Their children's elderly grandparents are also with them. Over the course of the last year, they've all become increasingly unwell, but right now Mohammed & his wife are terrified for their children and his parents.
- All 3 kids have been sick several times and have been acutely malnourished for months. But right now, the lack of food is putting them dangerously at risk of starvation
- Both of Mohammed's parents have diabetes & hypertension. His mother also suffers from osteoporosis and a slipped disc (her health in particular has severely deteriorated without treatment)
Winter just started and its only going to worsen their situation. Mohammed urgently needs to be able to buy food and warmer clothes for all of them (especially his children), and medication for his parents. He needs to raise about 2k as soon as possible to do this though, so please donate whatever you can !
