Two UK-based Pakistani brothers, Kash Ahmad and Shabs Ahmad, have made a remarkable contribution to the humanitarian efforts in Gaza.
Through their charity initiative, they have raised over £1 million to support the war-hit Palestinians in the besieged Gaza enclave.
The development was shared by Mr Kash on his Instagram account, where he usually shares supercars modification videos.
According to the British-Pakistani man, almost £1.35 million were raised and distributed among the Palestinians, who have been struggling to survive for almost eight months.
The situation in Gaza remains dire, with the Israeli military's actions resulting in devastating consequences.
Entire families have been killed or maimed, and even evacuation centers managed by UNRWA have been targeted by the Israeli forces.
The United Nations (UN) has warned that it will take 15 years to clear the debris from Gaza, which is estimated to be hundreds of millions of tons.
The World Health Organisation (WHO) reported over 1,000 attacks on healthcare facilities in the occupied Palestinian territory since October 7.
New satellite imagery analysis by the United Nations Satellite Centre (UNOSAT) has shown that 63% of Gaza's crop fields have experienced significant decline due to Israel's bombings.
The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) stated that 83% of Gaza is under evacuation orders or designated as ‘no-go’ zones by the Israeli military.
Israel's war on Gaza since October 7 has killed more than 39,000 people, with over 89,727 wounded, according to Palestinian authorities in Gaza.
