🚨 With the CEOs of 12 major aid orgs, we are making an urgent plea: let us do our jobs. Every single person in Gaza is relying on humanitarian aid to survive. That lifeline has been cut off since a blockade on all aid supplies was imposed by Israeli authorities on 2nd March.

The scenes that came out of Gaza today are beyond what the human mind can grasp or comprehend. Burned, incinerated children, blown apart, their bodies torn, scattered. A child who survived a bombing, sitting alone in the rubble, reaching out with his hand, crying, his face
