Malala Yousafzai announces aid of $300K for Palestinians

Birmingham: Human Rights Advocate Malala Yousafzai has strongly condemned the attack on the hospital in Gaza and demanded an immediate ceasefire.

Turning to social media platform X, she shared a video message stating: “I’m horrified to see the bombing of al-Ahli Hospital in Gaza and unequivocally condemn it”.

I urge the Israeli government to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza and reiterate the call for a ceasefire, she added.

Malala Yousafzai directed $300,000 to three charities helping Palestinian people under attack.

Moreover in the video message she said: “I am here to add my voice to those in Palestine, Israel and around the world crying out for peace”.

Collective punishment is not the answer. Half of Gaza’s population is 18 years old. They should not be forced to live their entire life under bombing and an unjust occupation.

Malala urged everyone who’s watching the video to donate to organizations that are providing humanitarian aid.

Together we must make it clear to all leaders that we expect them to work towards an immediate ceasefire and enduring peace, she continued.
