"Please do not cry for me because your tears cause me pain." These are the words from 10-year-old Rasha's will. Dr. Thaer Ahmad shared her heartbreaking words at the UN to expose this brutal war on children. Her final wishes must be our call to action. 📷: UNWebTV on 25/Sep/2025.

Speaking last week at a WFP side event in New York, Dr. Ambereen Sleemi, who was in Gaza in July 2025, shared a grim assessment while advocating for peace: "Even the ones who were able to make it were malnourished moms giving birth to malnourished babies." Support Gaza: join us at avaaz.org.

Local journalists remain on the ground reporting under bombardment, hunger, and constant threats to their lives. They are some of the only eyes, ears, and voices keeping the world informed.

For almost two years, nearly 210 journalists have been killed in Gaza. Israel has blocked international press access – the most severe restriction in any modern conflict. This is a direct attack on people’s right to know the truth.

For the first time in history, 270 media outlets from over 70 countries joined together to make themselves heard. Front pages, websites, social media profiles, and broadcasts went dark to demand a stop to the killing of journalists and call for press freedom in Gaza.
