  1. 🙏🇵🇸This assistance is distributed to us by the World Food Programme #WFP two food boxes and one bag of flour as a monthly ration. But because of the blockade, shortages of supplies and funding, we have been receiving it only once every three months. Since the war between Israel and Iran, it has stopped completely.
    The ration currently contains a bag of flour; the first box has rice, lentils, salt and tahini/sirij oil; and the second contains canned foods, mainly beans and ground chickpeas, with very little variety.
    We are not rejecting this assistance or underestimating its value. We are grateful for everything humanitarian organizations are trying to provide under such difficult circumstances. But when a family has a child suffering from malnutrition, there needs to be some flexibility in the contents of the food ration.
    My 7-year-old son Abdullah is classified as malnourished (red status). I update his information and report his condition every time. I have taken him to medical points, where I receive whatever they are able to provide, but many of the nutritional supplements and vitamins appropriate for his age are simply unavailable.
    I am struggling to provide Abdullah with the vitamins and healthy food he needs. When I cannot afford them, I sometimes have to take them from the pharmacy on credit and pay later.
    Abdullah needs nutritious food suitable for his age and condition—foods rich in protein and energy, appropriate milk, and foods fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, according to the recommendations of specialists.
    We are not asking for luxury or extra food simply for the sake of having more. We are asking for the real nutritional needs of a child who has been classified as malnourished.
    Families are not all the same, and children's needs are not all the same. Food assistance should not be treated as simply a fixed quantity of food distributed in exactly the same way to everyone. We are human beings, and every child has different needs—especially children suffering from or at risk of malnutrition.
    We hope that Abdullah's condition, and the conditions of other children like him, can be taken into consideration and that food assistance can be adapted, in coordination with specialists, to meet their actual nutritional needs.🇵🇸🙏‼️

  8. URGENT—PLEASE HELP US. 💔

    Rodents are biting our bodies, and our tent is completely torn apart. We don’t even have enough money for a single meal. Scabies has spread across our bodies, and we desperately need $70 for urgent treatment. We cry day and night, exhausted and helpless. Please, any donation or share could help us survive. 🙏

  9. Khan Younis, Gaza
    Ahmed Abdulaziz Abu Anzeh, a 61-year-old Palestinian who has lung cancer and malnutrition, sits in a makeshift tent where he lives in the al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis. Israel’s closure of border crossings and restrictions on the entry of medicines into the region have made it difficult for Abu Anzeh and others like him to access the treatment they need.
