Through cooperation between the Turkish Red Crescent and the Disaster and Emergency Management Authority , supported by civil society organisations, Türkiye has delivered around 40,000 tons of humanitarian aid to Gaza via 13 aircraft and eight ships. In addition to humanitarian aid, the Turkish Red Crescent distributes 10,000 hot meals daily through its soup kitchen in Rafah.

The sole power plant in Gaza has been non-operational since Oct. 11 due to fuel shortages, leading to the shutdown of hospitals and impeding debris removal efforts. Health facilities in Gaza have faced at least 410 attacks, with only 10 hospitals remaining operational, six in the south a nd four in the north.

According to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, around 1.7 million Palestinians, equivalent to 75% of the population, have been displaced in Gaza, with 1.4 million seeking refuge in 155 UN-run schools.
