Statement on Israel and Gaza
We are heartbroken by the loss of life in Israel and Gaza. Innocent people including women and children, as well as those who have been displaced, continue to be victims of the escalating conflict. We mourn for those who have lost loved ones and are suffering in this crisis and call on international leaders to bring an end to this tragedy.
In conflict zones around the world, ADRA is committed to serving the most vulnerable people with justice, compassion, and love. Although we are unable to respond under the current circumstances, we stand ready to assist when the time comes. Please join ADRA in praying for those who have been affected by this crisis.
