Schools, Hospitals, Holy Spaces–Nowhere Secure, No One Spared
In Gaza, a genocide is unfolding.
On October 17, Israel bombed the Al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza, where injured and displaced Palestinians (mainly women and children) were seeking refuge. In the aftermath, body parts and human remains were scattered all over the place.
And because there were THAT many people inside the hospital, no one could tell how many Gazans were actually killed. The estimate lies between 500 to 1500.
A father cried inconsolably as he held the few remains of his massacred son— in a trash bag. In a trash bag!
Schools, Hospitals, Holy Spaces–Nowhere Secure, No One Spared
Let that sink in.
People were BLOWN apart. Injured, vulnerable, and defenseless.
Sadly, other hospitals are now being targeted too. Due to the threats that have been issued since the bombing of Al-Ahli hospital, 3 hospitals have since been evacuated.
Gaza has 35 hospitals in total. One has been bombed, 3 have been evacuated, 24 have been damaged, and ALL of them have run out of fuel.
Doctors are having to do surgeries on infants and injured Palestinians WITHOUT anesthesia, and women are giving birth WITHOUT medication. Wounds are being treated for bacteria with corner-store vinegar.
If you’ve ever read Anne Frank’s diary and wondered what kind of a world would let innocent souls go through this, then today, you’ve got your answer: THIS WORLD.
“My Children Died Hungry, They Didn’t Eat”
These were the words a Palestinian mother SCREAMED outside the Al-Shifa hospital after her children were massacred by the Israeli occupation. She cried inconsolably, begging the world to stop this torture— asking why her children had to be killed, why she was made so helpless that she couldn’t even feed her children one last time.
With the total siege Israel has imposed on Gaza, and external aid being completely blocked out, those who manage to survive the ongoing bombing are being STARVED to death.
Since October 7th, Palestinians have been slain by Israeli forces mercilessly. In only 17 days, more than 20,386 Palestinians have been killed AND severely injured in Gaza & the West Bank.

So far, in Gaza:
⚫ 14,300 Residential buildings have been destroyed.
⚫ 24 Health Facilities have been damaged and are no longer functioning.
⚫ 3 Hospitals have been evacuated.
⚫ 164 Educational Facilities have been damaged.
⚫ 18 Mosques and Churches have been either demolished or damaged.
⚫ 11 Water Facilities have been damaged.
⚫ 1 MILLION Gazans have been displaced and 400,000 have been moved to shelters.
⚫ ALL hospitals have run out of fuel and their healthcare capability.
These are not just numbers… This is the REALITY for the 2.3 Million people in Gaza… REAL people with real dreams, hopes, aspirations, families, and friends— just like the rest of us.
Mass graves… Ice cream vans to hold bodies… children writing their names on them so they can be identified if they are bombed… THOUSANDS of decayed bodies still trapped under the rubble…
Palestinians are enduring horrors that we cannot even bear to see in our worst nightmares.
Their reality is far worse than ANYTHING we have ever witnessed or seen— even the movies do not come close. What is being projected onto the world as “War” is really genocide and a massacre of our brothers and sisters in Gaza.

FAQ
1. How can I make a donation lower than the minimum amount?
Please visit this link if you can not donate the listed amounts but would still like to take care of our Palestinian brothers and sisters in need.
2. What is the situation on the ground related to the electricity being cut off?
There are a few NGOs on the ground that have been working to establish alternative systems like solar and communal charging stations.
Some households also have gas-powered generators, solar panels, and power banks. While these are not permanent solutions, they are keeping communications alive at the moment.
The WHO and health cluster in coordination with the active human rights organizations are advocating for a humanitarian corridor through the Egyptian Palestinian borders to enable the aid to enter Gaza.
3. How are you managing the lack of electricity in Gaza?
We are not taking our team on the ground for granted. They themselves are affected and are accessing power supplies wherever possible using solar, power banks, and generators. Some of the staff are accessing power at hospitals and other places where generators exist.
We have also been working to access more fuel for generators alongside the WHO and health cluster to continue to power hospitals.
Our team at the moment is using funds and supplies that are already inside Gaza.
4. How are you procuring items under a blockade?
We have long-term relationships with our local partners who have warehouses and stocked items as part of the continued relief efforts in Gaza. They are also working with existing suppliers.
We are ready to respond with additional supplies when the border crossing in Egypt is restored fully.
5. How are you facilitating communication with the team in Gaza?
At the moment we are using WhatsApp for communication, which is encrypted, and accessible. Our staff on the ground are updating us constantly.
In the unlikely event that our staff have absolutely no ability to charge their devices, and all hospitals and emergency shelters at schools no longer have any fuel to run their generators, this would constitute a catastrophic situation where all aid delivery would come to an end, including that being provided by the UN agency.
This is why advocacy is important. Contact your Member of Parliament and let your voice be heard.
6. What kind of shelter are you providing in Gaza?
Families are sheltering with their family members, within UNRWA schools, and in the masjids.
The shelter items that HCI has procured including blankets, pillows, and mattresses will be delivered to the UNRWA schools as the safest shelter currently.
