“At the beginning of Ramadan, we offered citizens the opportunity to donate for iftars in Gaza. In 2 weeks, 14,500 euros were collected and immediately sent to our partner organization IHH, from Turkiye, which immediately started implementing the project.”

During the month of Ramadan, the humanitarian NGO Legis from Skopje organizes a humanitarian action to collect donations for iftar for the population of Palestinian Gaza, which is affected by the Israeli attacks and where the humanitarian situation and living conditions are significantly difficult.

“At the beginning of Ramadan fasting, we offered citizens the opportunity to donate for iftars in Gaza. Within 2 weeks of the start of the action, 14,500 euros were collected and immediately sent to our partner organization IHH, from Turkiye, which immediately started implementing the project. Thanks to Turkey’s strong influence in preventing and mitigating conflicts and natural disasters in the world, permanent humanitarian corridors have been established everywhere in the world, including in Gaza. And that’s how our aid reaches its intended destination and is implemented smoothly together with the aid of the largest Turkish humanitarian organization”, Jasmin Redzepi, president of the non-governmental organization Legis, said in a statement to TRT Balkans.

As he informed, the aid contains a high-calorie liquid hot meal, authentic to the local cuisine, made of flour, meat, eggs, olive oil and water, which meets the needs of a dignified meal in the conditions of war.

Rexhepi explains that due to the difficult security conditions and destroyed infrastructure, food is cooked in makeshift outdoor kitchens to protect the lives of local aid workers serving Palestinians in Gaza.

He adds that the meals are being distributed in the remaining centers (former schools, to house internally displaced people from northern Gaza, mostly women and children.

“With the funds so far, it is planned to distribute 3,600 hot meals, and with the end of the humanitarian action to collect funds one week before the end of Ramadan, we will know how many more meals will be distributed in total,” says Redzepi. He points out that the non-governmental organization Legis has been involved in international humanitarian actions for Gaza since its foundation in 2009. “The penultimate humanitarian operation to distribute hot meals in Gaza was carried out in December 2023.”

“A year ago, Legis was the first humanitarian organization from Macedonia that sent humanitarian aid and its activists to the victims of the earthquake in Turkiye, and at the end of last Ramadan, they donated thousands of hot meals for iftar in Hatay, Kahramanmarash and Reyhanli,” recalls Redzepi.

All this, the cause of your donations that made this possible for us.
