In response to the devastating humanitarian crisis in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territory we have launched an emergency appeal to support the people affected.

Staff and volunteers from Magen David Adom (MDA), Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) and the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) have been working round the clock to respond to urgent needs, including treating casualties. The ICRC are ready to provide further humanitarian assistance as required on both sides.
