Charities cut Gaza aid

‘For a long time, Jawahir Muhammad has struggled to raise her five children. Three years ago, her husband, Ibrahim, died after years of severe health problems.
“My husband suffered a lot,” said Jawaher, 45, who lives in Gaza. “He was not able to feed his children, so I was forced to look for money from relatives and charities.”
Since her husband’s death, she has received 150 shekels ($40) per month for each of her children. Barely enough to buy basic groceries, the payments have now been cut off.
Al-Monasara, the charity which administered the payments, is unable to continue making them. Because of funding shortages, it recently halted its aid to approximately 100 families in Gaza.’
