“The aid must be lock. It is necessary to allow quick and safe restrictions and there are no restrictions on humanitarian assistance,” says Elizabeth Vonnil, Kivoud’s actress for the Middle East, the official International Relief Agency of the Catholic Church in England and Wales.
CAFOD is part of Net Caritas Internationalis and cooperates with societies in Africa, Asia, the Middle East and Latin America, combating poverty, injustice and climate change, as well as responding to human emergency situations and providing support to those who need them more.
A warning of an imminent famine
The humanitarian situation in Gaza reached a critical point. In fact, the CPI, supported by the United Nations, warned of the threat of imminent starvation.
Despite the tremendous challenges, the local partners of the Foundation continue to provide direct assistance on the ground.
In a statement, Funnel said that the entity’s statement responds to the announcement of Israel to allow the entry of limited food to Gaza, in parallel with the beginning of the intense ground attack.
Call to Alto Al -Fuigu and free trading for help
“Our demands have not changed since this crisis began: a high instant fire, entering without large -scale assistance restrictions and stopping the sale of weapons from the United Kingdom to Israel,” Vonel said. “The population bombardment, their killing, and the prohibition of access to assistance is a violation of international law,” he added.
“There are thousands of trucks full of help on the border,” he regretted and church: “The siege must be lifted. Humanitarian aid must flow quickly, safely and without obstacles.”
The partners are at risk
Cafod members continue to work despite the huge risks. At the end of last week, for example, air attacks were registered near two medical centers run by Jerusalem Caritas, which provide basic health care for societies in a critical situation.
Given the increasing insecurity, the partners reassess the distribution of assistance to the protection of employees, although their commitment to the population is still fixed.
One of the collaborators, who run a community kitchen, said: “I am pleased to know that we can still prepare some meals. It is not food due to lack of supply, but it is better than anything else.”
“This is real hunger”
However, he warns the same collaborator: “This is a real hunger. They are trying to call it in other ways to soften it, but no, we all get stuck every day.”
The main medical center in Caritas Jerusalem had to close at the beginning of the crisis in 2023 for security reasons and infrastructure damage. Despite the ongoing bombings and severe restrictions, the team managed to rebuild and reopen last week.
Currently, the center provides primary medical care, mother health services and anti -malnutrition directions. He also training health staff to publish them through various areas of Gaza and thus reaching those who cannot access other medical services.
