Dire Conditions in Northern Gaza
The northern Gaza Strip has been under siege for over 40 days. Entire neighborhoods in Beit Lahiya, Jabalia, and Beit Hanoun are cut off, leaving residents without food, water, or medical aid.

The conflict has left vast parts of Gaza in ruins, displacing millions. Reports confirm that at least 43,799 Palestinians have died, with over 103,000 wounded since October 2023.
A Humanitarian Catastrophe
The ongoing violence reflects the devastating toll of the Gaza conflict. International agencies have expressed grave concerns about civilian casualties and the worsening humanitarian crisis. As airstrikes and blockades continue, the calls for an immediate ceasefire grow louder.
