Pakistan sends humanitarian relief assistance to Gaza. The Pakistani government has decided to send immediate humanitarian relief supplies to Gaza in response to the human tragedy that is currently taking place there in order to lessen the suffering of the Palestinian brothers and sisters.
In a statement on Monday, the Foreign Office spokesperson said that the already oppressed people of the densely populated Gaza Strip were in urgent need of humanitarian assistance in the wake of indiscriminate Israeli aggression and the siege of the Gaza Strip.
“The government is coordinating with the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, relevant UN agencies, the Government of Egypt and Pakistan missions abroad to finalize modalities of delivery,” he added.

As Pakistan sends humanitarian relief assistance to Gaza, in a previous statement, the World Health Organisation warned that the Gaza Strip only had “24 hours of water, electricity, and fuel left” before “a real catastrophe” struck.
Since Israel surrounded Gaza City and began nonstop bombing it in response to a Hamas attack on the city on October 7, aid convoys have been stuck at the Rafah border crossing with Egypt.
On October 7, Hamas militants broke through Israel’s heavily guarded border, killing over 1,400 Israelis and injuring 1,600 more.
At least 2,808 people—mostly civilians—were killed as a result of Israel’s retaliatory bombing campaign in the Gaza Strip, which also left over 10,000 Palestinians injured.
