Since October 7 2023, 47,518 people have been killed and 111,612 people injured because of the Israeli attacks on Gaza. A total of 245,612 buildings have also been destroyed for the past 16 months.
Soon after the ceasefire, IHH established 6 tent cities in Gaza to urgently facilitate families whose houses were destroyed by the Israeli attacks. The tent cities were established by various IHH branches; Shijaiya Tent Camp was made possible with the contribution of Istanbul IHH; Shijaiya Park Tent Camp by Samsun and Erzurum IHH; Ankara Tent Camp by Ankara IHH; Emirsultan Tent Camp by Bursa IHH; Konya Tent Camp by Konya IHH; and Kocaeli Tent Camp by Kocaeli IHH. Meanwhile, the Konya IHH Tent Camp, established with the help of Konya IHH, is the largest tent camp built in Gaza, housing 300 tents.
Thousands of Palestinians Benefited
In the newly built tent cities, there are also public areas such as mosques, educational spaces, and healthcare centers. A total of 688 tents have been set up, and 4,350 Palestinians, whose homes were destroyed and who were trying to survive by building makeshift shelters with their own means in harsh winter conditions, have been placed in these cities.
The IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation continues its aid activities in Palestine without interruption, just as it did before the Israeli attacks began on October 7, 2023.
