They call it ‘the world’s biggest prison’. Nearly two million people live on a small strip of land, about the same size as Manhattan. Very few people get in or out of the Gaza strip. It’s under an Israeli blockade - by land, sea and air. Inside, a generation has grown up knowing only conflict, poverty and destruction. Nicole Johnston has reported on Gaza for years, and covered two wars with Israel from the strip. In this Newsmakers documentary she returns during peacetime, to see how people have survived ten years under siege.

Jabaliya Medical Centre

Posted in Gaza

The Jabaliya Medical Centre is now operational; Alhamdulillah Our small contribution of USD 15K kick-started their JMC When we saw it during our trip there; all was in order except for the energy supply .

The JMC is probably one of the best building we laid eyes on in Jabaliya - spruced up from the remnants of the Zionist occupation,Our super-efficient treasurer very quickly disbursed the sum in Ramadhan to enable them to buy the generator (in total we disbursed RM 1 Million in the month of Ramadhan alone)
