The Youth Development Association, along with its volunteers and staff in the Gaza Strip, provided support to displaced people in the south of the Strip who had been forced to leave their homes in the northern governorates. The Association distributed desalinated water for drinking and household use, targeting the Al-Baraka Camp gathering, Street of Environment in Deir al-Balah, benefiting more than 500 displaced families from the north to the south of the Strip. In addition, the distribution reached the Al-Bahr Camp gathering in the Aklouk–Al-Masha’la area in Deir al-Balah, benefiting more than 600 families, or over 3,000 people displaced from the north to the south of the Strip, on Sunday, September 21, 2025.

The Strip is witnessing a catastrophic situation and a major humanitarian crisis as a result of the ongoing events and the occupation’s prevention of humanitarian and medical aid convoys from entering. The suffering increases daily with the complete absence of the basic necessities of life, in addition to a total lack of essential supplies such as food, water, medicine, and infant formula. This activity comes as part of the international campaign launched by the Youth Development Association since the first day of the war to support our displaced people in the Gaza Strip, in order to cover a small part of the citizens’ and families’ needs to help them endure and survive.
