Al-Azhar Al-Sharif:
We condemn the worsening humanitarian tragedy in the Gaza Strip, as a result of the precipitation and heavy rains that flooded thousands of displaced people's tents.
We warn against exposing children, women, the elderly and the sick to extreme cold, in the absence of shelter and means of heating.
We call on the international community and the governments of the world to take urgent action to save citizens and not just watch their suffering.
We call on aid organizations and Arab and Islamic countries to provide urgent aid, including rainproof tents, winter supplies, heating, food and medicine.
We emphasize the necessity to break the restrictions of the blockade and bring aid without obstacles, in order to preserve the lives and dignity of the displaced.
