Nobel laureate directs $300K to three charities helping Palestinian people under attack
LONDON (Web Desk) - Pakistani Nobel laureate and human rights activist Malala Yousafzai comes in the support of Palestinians as Israeli forces attacked a hospital in Gaza.
In her video message released on X, formerly Twitter, the rights activist said collective punishment was not the answer.
“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. I am directing $300K to three charities helping Palestinian people under attack,” Malala posted on X.
Gaza, home to 2.3 million people, is under complete siege as Israel vowed to take mighty revenge after the attack of Hamas.

Malala added that half of Gaza’s population was under 18 and they should not be forced to live their entire lives under bombing and in unjust occupation.
“Everyone must work for immediate ceasefire and peace,” the youngest recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize said while seeking donations for the humanitarian groups working in Gaza.
