Statement on ceasefire in Gaza
Format
A ceasefire between Israel and Palestinian armed groups in Gaza was announced yesterday, May 20. Now, it is fundamental that the ceasefire is sustained, allowing humanitarian organizations to access people who need help, respond to urgent needs, and relieve the suffering of Gazan civilians, especially children.
Although precise damage assessments have not yet been possible due to hostilities and lack of humanitarian access, we have witnessed the impact on our programs and on our colleagues. It is already clear that long-term support to Gaza will be necessary. The engagement from the international community will be crucial. While we will respond to immediate humanitarian needs, we should not forget the longer-term consequences that this conflict will have on access to health and other basic services.
