    <title>Palestine crisis - emergency response - UNRWA 2026</title>
    <description>February 2026 –  The magnitude and severity of death, destruction and extreme deprivation in the Gaza Strip have generated profound human suffering and humanitarian needs. In the West Bank, demolitions, operations by Israeli forces, settler violence, and movement restrictions continue to trigger displacement and drive a range of humanitarian needs. The erosion of community resilience mechanisms has further intensified needs across all sectors. The United Nations estimates that 3.62 million people require lifesaving assistance across Palestine.  With GAC’s support, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) contributes to stabilizing conditions, restoring and scaling up the delivery of essential services, protecting the most vulnerable and providing life-saving humanitarian assistance to those in need. Project activities include providing emergency assistance, including food, healthcare, water and protection services to meet the basic needs of Palestinians.</description>
