As part of the EU’s long standing commitment to support Palestinians in need and in light of the latest developments in the region, the European Commission today announced a new aid package for Gaza worth €120 million. This brings total EU humanitarian assistance to Gaza to over €450 million since 2023 and comes in addition to the EU Air Bridge Flights which have delivered over 3,800 tonnes of aid. The EU continues working with partners on the ground to ensure that aid reaches those in need fast.

 

The aid package will include:

  • Food assistance to address acute food insecurity and malnutrition
  • Healthcare assistance to support the functioning of healthcare facilities and provide medical supplies
  • Water, sanitation, and hygiene support to allow access to water and sanitation services
  • Shelter assistance to provide safe and secure accommodation for those who have been displaced
  • Protection assistance to support the safety and dignity of vulnerable populations

 

The EU will work closely with UN agencies and other humanitarian partner organisations to ensure swift delivery of the assistance.
