People with special needs in Gaza are among the most prominent issues that must be highlighted, especially in these difficult circumstances, and with the continuous escalation of the number of serious injuries that result in the loss of one of the parties or senses, these heroes who face the war with multiple challenges and difficult times, it is our duty to work to support them to overcome this dilemma in various ways available and stand by each person.
Who are people with special needs?
In light of the war and the surrounding conditions in the Gaza Strip, the situation intensified after the targeting of houses and shelters, and left a number of wounded and wounded, which amounted to the seriousness of their injuries and the lack of any means to treat them to the need to amputate one of the parties, in addition to the harmful substances resulting from bomb emissions, and the loud sounds of shelling led to the loss of a number of people.
Here, a wheelchair becomes a barrier on unprepared roads, and loss of limb or hearing or vision becomes a double barrier in an environment that lacks the most basic rights. Many of these heroes are children and some of them have lost their parents during this war and have no one but God, this daily suffering experienced by these children doubles their pain, and makes them face the challenges of life without any support.
The environment in Gaza is also ill-equipped to meet their needs, especially due to lack of health care, and lack of materials for assistive devices, which makes their lives more challenging. In addition, the continuation of the war increases their suffering and exacerbates their health and psychological problems.
The Importance of Supporting People with Special Needs
Supporting people with special needs in Gaza is an urgent humanitarian issue in light of the difficult circumstances facing the Strip. After the war destroyed the health sector in Gaza from hospitals and health centers and targeting medical staff, it became difficult to receive treatment for the amount of wounded waiting for their role and this leads to worsening the health conditions of the wounded and injured.
The importance of supporting people with special needs is highlighted in:
1. Enhance their resilience and ease their pain
Providing appropriate support contributes to alleviating their suffering as a result of disability and difficult circumstances.
2. Providing a decent life
By providing aids, health care, and psychosocial support.
How can people with special needs in Gaza be supported?
Persons with special needs constitute a huge number of the injured in Gaza, and as a result of the lack of adequate treatment space and the acute shortage of medical supplies and medicines, the number of those in need of special medical care such as them is increasing. Therefore, we do support and donation campaigns to support them and alleviate part of their suffering, even if a little, your donation, however little, makes a difference in their lives, and through your donation we can provide the following:
1. Amount of money for medical cases outside Gaza
Many critical medical conditions cannot be treated within the sector due to lack of equipment and medicines. Therefore, the provision of funds for treatment outside Gaza is essential to save lives and improve the chances of recovery.
2. Medicines and medical supplies
The health sector in Gaza suffers from a severe shortage of medicines and medical supplies due to the war and the ongoing siege, and the provision of these medicines and supplies is an urgent necessity to ensure the continuation of health care and save the lives of patients, especially in light of the increasing number of injured and patients who need immediate treatment.
3. Basic needs
The provision of basic needs for people with special needs is one of the most important things that must be contributed to, given the health situation and the difficulty of movement for most of them, the provision of food and drink is a must.
