Al-Azhar Calls for Urgent International Action to Protect Displaced Palestinians in Gaza from Winter Cold
——————————————
Al-Azhar has called on the international community and humanitarian organizations to urgently assist hundreds of thousands of displaced Palestinians in Gaza after heavy rains flooded thousands of damaged tents, leaving families exposed to freezing temperatures.

In a statement, Al-Azhar urged Arab and Islamic countries and international relief agencies to deliver emergency supplies, including waterproof tents, winter clothing, heating equipment, food and medicines. It also called for removing obstacles preventing humanitarian aid from reaching those in need.

Al-Azhar warned that children, women, elderly people and patients face increasing risks as winter conditions worsen, stressing that immediate practical action is needed to protect displaced families and prevent further humanitarian suffering.
