The 19th batch of wounded Palestinians from the Gaza Strip has recently arrived in Doha in preparation for their treatment, as part of the initiative of the Amir HH Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani to provide medical treatment for 1,500 injured Palestinians from the Strip.

Recently, Qatar Foundation school students also organized a host of initiatives and events and collectively raised over QR20.4 million, with all proceeds directed towards supporting relief efforts in Palestine.

These efforts highlight Qatar's unwavering commitment to aiding the Palestinian people to ease their suffering amid the ongoing war on Gaza.
