Julia Rosell Jackson, senior humanitarian advocacy adviser at Women’s Rights at ActionAid UK, said: “Although we welcome the UK’s delivery of aid into Gaza, particularly a much-needed maternity ward, it’s clear that this announcement is little more than a sticking plaster on a gaping wound. The delivery of over 3,000 period products to women and girls will provide small relief, but nearly 700,000 women and girls are unable to access sanitary pads, and many are resorting to using tent scraps as an unsafe and unhygienic alternative.
