Building on its efforts to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinians following the Israeli attacks earlier this month, Qatar Red Crescent Society’s (QRCS) representation mission in Gaza, jointly with the Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS), has finalized preparations for the procurement of emergency relief, food, and medical aid.

In a press statement, QRCS said that it will give out medications and medical consumables worth $300,000 as well as relief and food items valued at $372,000 to the victims under the ‘We Are All Palestine’ campaign.

As many as 60,000 people most impacted by the crises will benefit from the supplies.

QRCS President Sheikh Abdullah bin Thamer Al Thani had earlier announced the QR60 million fundraising campaign to respond to the impact of war on the people of Palestine. It would help a total of 500,000 Palestinians to get over the calamity and restore their normal lives very soon.

As soon as the challenging events began in the Palestinian territories, QRCS began to offer all kinds of assistance on the ground owed to its already existing representation missions in Gaza, the West Bank, and Al-Quds.

With the support of PRCS, QRCS staff gave out 600 food parcels to 4,000 beneficiaries, offered psychological support consultations to the public, and trained 60 physicians and nurses to enhance their emergency assessment skills.

Emergency departments at Gaza hospitals received vital signs monitors, medical tents, beds, and equipment to meet the increasing demand. The staff of QRCS’ mission in Gaza donated blood to the Blood Bank.

Under QRCS’s Gaza Specialized Surgery Support Project, seven consultant physicians of cardiovascular surgery, cardiothoracic surgery, orthopedics, urology, and anesthetics performed over 100 surgeries for critical cases injured during the war.
