Over the last month, the crisis in Gaza | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
has captured the world's attention. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:07 | |
Military conflict has been taking a devastating toll | 0:00:07 | 0:00:10 | |
on a densely populated area. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:12 | |
So tens of thousands of people have nowhere to live | 0:00:14 | 0:00:17 | |
and nowhere else to go. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:18 | |
The conflict means that the people of Gaza are in great need. | 0:00:21 | 0:00:25 | |
Thousands of exhausted families are living in temporary shelters, | 0:00:28 | 0:00:33 | |
facing a very uncertain future. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:35 | |
The DEC estimates over a million people don't even have access | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
to enough clean water. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
These people desperately need your help. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
That's why the Disasters Emergency Committee, or DEC, | 0:00:47 | 0:00:50 | |
an umbrella organisation that unites 13 UK humanitarian aid agencies, | 0:00:50 | 0:00:55 | |
has launched an emergency appeal. | 0:00:55 | 0:00:58 | |
DEC members and their partners are already on the ground, | 0:00:58 | 0:01:02 | |
but to help the vast numbers of people affected, | 0:01:02 | 0:01:04 | |
they need your donation. | 0:01:04 | 0:01:05 | |
Families are grieving over the many dead. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:11 | |
Thousands of people have been injured. | 0:01:11 | 0:01:14 | |
So providing urgent medical attention is crucial. | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
Already overstretched medical services are at breaking point. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:23 | |
Help from the outside is required right now for the sick and injured, | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
and to bring relief to the displaced. | 0:01:26 | 0:01:29 | |
Delivering humanitarian aid in areas of conflict is difficult, | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
but the member agencies of the DEC work with experienced local partners | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
to ensure that aid reaches those who so desperately need it. | 0:01:37 | 0:01:41 | |
£25 can buy 150 bandages. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
£50 can feed five families for a day. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:49 | |
£100 can provide an emergency shelter kit and blankets for one family. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:55 | |
This is an urgent humanitarian crisis, | 0:01:55 | 0:01:58 | |
so the DEC needs us to act now. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
Please help if you can. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:04 | |
Thank you. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:33 |
