Conflict in the Middle East is devastating lives. Millions of people across Gaza, Lebanon and the wider region urgently need shelter, food and basic supplies. Save lives. Donate now.

The DEC is extremely concerned about the situation in Israel right now, and the loss of life and suffering that families there have faced over the past year. Families of those held hostage desperately await news of their loved ones, tens of thousands of people have been displaced, and many more are dealing with trauma caused by the ongoing conflict.

Israeli civil society across the country has made immense efforts to scale up its capabilities to respond to the significant humanitarian and psychosocial needs. This work has been supported by charities and communities in the UK.

Over the past year, conflict in the Middle East has devastated lives across the region, and millions have fled their homes in search of safety. People are in urgent need of food, shelter and medical care. DEC member charities and their local partners are working in Gaza, Lebanon and the surrounding region right now to provide life-saving aid. But they need more funds to meet the vast levels of need.
