The humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip is grim and getting worse by the day. Despite significant obstacles, Mercy Corps is getting aid to families who need our help.
On Sunday, staff and volunteers distributed food boxes to 180 families in Khan Younis, and delivered another $7,000 worth of mattresses, blankets, powdered milk and other relief items to families in Rafah.
As Israel announced stepped-up attacks inside Gaza, Mercy Corps continued to distribute emergency aid to families displaced by the fighting.
