Intensifications of military operations in Gaza City has forced us to temporarily suspend operations at our office there and relocate staff to southern Gaza to ensure safety and operational continuity.

We remain committed to returning to Gaza City as soon as conditions allow.

They protect those not or no longer participating in armed conflicts, save lives, and reduce suffering.

📍 Iran | We are appalled by the killing of three aid workers from the Iranian Red Crescent Society (@Iran_RCS) while they were carrying out their humanitarian work.

Our condolences go out to their families, friends, and colleagues.

[ICRC in Israel & OT @ICRC_ilot]

The healthcare system in Gaza is extremely fragile. To avert preventable deaths, the services of the remaining health-care facilities must be preserved and reinforced.
