For the fourth day in a row, Gaza awoke to the sound of explosions instead of silence. What was meant to be a fragile cease fire turned once again into tragedy as Israeli airstrikes hit the northern Gaza Strip on Friday, killing three Palestinians, according to the local health authorities. Residents describe a night filled with fear the roar of jets overhead, the shaking of buildings, and the cries that follow. These were ordinary families, already displaced and struggling t

The scale of suffering in Sudan is almost beyond words, yet it’s all too real. Nearly 400,000 people are now facing famine in Darfur and South Kordofan, according to the latest report by the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC). This is not just another crisis it’s the world’s largest humanitarian disaster, unfolding before our eyes while millions fight for their very survival.

On November 3rd, 2025, our team delivered a vital water aid truck to communities in Sudan, where access to clean water has become a life or death struggle. This mission comes amid reports of massive massacres and ongoing conflict, leaving thousands of families in desperate need of safety and basic necessities. Most of the people you see in the video are women and children, our team shared that many men were either killed in the violence or remain trapped in the danger zones.

The massacres in El Fasher, carried out by the RSF and fuelled by its UAE backers will end only when the world acts. What unfolded over 18 months reached a horrific climax last week when the RSF captured El Fasher. Mass killings followed. Survivors say almost 500 people were slaughtered in a single maternity hospital. Others tell of summary executions in the streets. Satellite images now show blood soaked ground, the violence so swift and brutal that monitors compare the firs

On October 28, 2025, the Lily Jay Foundation proudly sent another truck of clean water into Gaza, carrying not only relief but also love and solidarity for families who continue to endure unthinkable challenges. For countless people in Gaza, every drop of water is precious. With so much of the local infrastructure destroyed, the simple act of having clean water to drink or cook with has become a daily struggle. This delivery brought thousands of litres of hope — refreshing he

Jerusalem, anyone looking at Gaza on Tuesday could easily believe the ceasefire had already collapsed. In the shattered city of Rafah, Israeli forces came under grenade and sniper fire, according to the military, killing one Israeli soldier. In response, Israel unleashed a wave of punishing airstrikes across the Strip strikes that, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, killed more than 100 people. For a moment, it seemed as if the U.S. brokered ceasefire had fallen

Right now, Sudan is facing one of the worst humanitarian crises in the world, yet many people don’t even know it’s happening. Millions of families have been forced to flee their homes because of violent conflict, hunger, and the complete collapse of basic services. 💔 Families Walking for Days Entire villages have been destroyed. Mothers carry their children for days under the burning sun, walking hundreds of kilometers just to find safety. Over 270,000 people have fled from

They did not return to their families with open arms, but in silence, lifeless, wrapped in sorrow. Thirty Palestinian prisoners have come home, not to freedom, but to graves freshly dug in the soil of Gaza. The ceasefire, meant to bring calm, echoes only with the sound of grief. The grief in Gaza deepens. Thirty Palestinian prisoners, their bodies cold, some marked by what appear to be signs of torture, were returned to their homeland today. These were not just numbers, but s

Horror has descended on El Fasher, Sudan, as hundreds of innocent patients and medical staff were reportedly massacred inside a hospital after the Rapid Support Forces (RSF) seized the city. Families are grieving, and survivors speak of a city turned into a killing field. The World Health Organization confirmed the deaths, and its Secretary General - Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said he was “appalled and deeply shocked” by the reports of more than 460 people killed at the Saudi

Fear and despair are growing across Gaza as the fragile ceasefire shows signs of collapse. Wednesday’s wave of Israeli strikes claimed the lives of more than 100 people, mostly women and childrenleaving families mourning and communities shattered. Despite the violence, US President Donald Trump insists the ceasefire remains intact, while mediator Qatar expressed frustration but pledged to continue efforts toward the next phase of the truce. The conflict’s shadow stretches bey

A quiet night in the southern Lebanese town of Bilda turned deadly when Israeli forces stormed the area, killing a municipal employee as he slept inside the town hall. The victim, Ibrahim Salameh, was described by locals as a humbel worker who took pride in serving his community. The raid, carried out with drones and armored vehicles, left residents in shock. Israel claimed it was targeting "Hezbollah infrastructure", yet offerd no proof that the building had any connestion

In Gaza today, clean water has become a luxury. Families line up for hours, children carry heavy containers, and hospitals struggle to find enough water for even the most basic needs. That’s why we launched the Sponsor a Water Truck Initiative . A direct, life-saving way to bring water to families who need it most. Every sponsorship sends a full truck of clean, drinkable water straight into Gaza’s most affected communities. When you sponsor a water truck, you’re not just do

In a small school in Uganda, a moment of light and faith was shared. The Lily Jay Foundation had the honor of distributing copies of the Holy Quran to students, many of whom were receiving one for the very first time in their lives. For these young hearts, it wasn’t just a book. It was a gift of knowledge, guidance, and hope. In places where access to Islamic education is limited, a single Quran can become a treasured source of comfort and spiritual connection for an entire f

In Gaza, something as simple as chocolate has become a distant memory. But this week, the Lily Jay Foundation brought that memory back, one sweet smile at a time. When our team handed out chocolate to the children, it wasn’t just candy. It was joy. It was hope. It was the first taste of childhood many had felt in months. The sound of laughter, the sparkle in their eyes, and the way they held those chocolates tightly, as if holding onto a dream, said it all. In a world where s

On October 18, 2025, the Lily Jay Foundation successfully delivered a water truck aid to the people of Gaza, continuing our mission to bring relief, dignity, and hope to those in need. For many families in Gaza, access to clean water remains one of the most pressing humanitarian challenges. With damaged infrastructure and limited resources, every delivery makes a meaningful difference. This latest mission provided thousands of litres of clean drinking water to families in ar

Offering an animal sacrifice is one of the most powerful acts of devotion, a way to give thanks, seek forgiveness, and bring relief to others all at the same time. Many people choose to give a sacrifice: 🤍 When you’re praying for someone’s recovery or healing 🕋 When seeking Allah’s acceptance of your du‘a 🌿 As charity on behalf of a loved one who has passed away 💫 In gratitude for a blessing or answered prayer 🌙 When asking for forgiveness and closeness to Allah 🌍 Turni

This month, the Lily Jay Foundation distributed over 500,000 litres of clean water to families in desperate need. For many, this water meant survival. A chance to drink, cook, make Wudu and live with dignity once more. Water isn’t a luxury; it’s a basic human right . Yet for too many, especially in war-torn regions like Gaza, access to clean water remains a daily struggle. Even with talk of ceasefires, the suffering hasn’t ended. Homes are still destroyed, wells remain dry

Alhamdulillah we’re excited to share some amazing news. The Lily Jay Foundation has officially launched a team on the ground in Uganda , dedicated to building fresh water wells for families in need. Across many villages, people walk hours under the sun just to collect small amounts of water, often unsafe and contaminated. Our mission is to change that. Every well we build means children can go to school instead of walking miles, mothers can cook and clean with clean water, an

The recent ceasefire has brought a moment of silence to Gaza but silence doesn’t mean safety, and peace doesn’t mean recovery. Yes, the bombs have stopped (for now), but the struggle continues. Entire neighborhoods lie in ruins. Wells are contaminated. Families still walk miles just to find a drop of clean water or a small bag of flour. Hospitals remain overwhelmed, and children are growing up surrounded by rubble instead of classrooms. Our team is still on the ground in Gaza

Even though a ceasefire has been announced, Gaza is still suffering deeply. The bombs may have paused, but the pain has not. Families are still living in ruins, children are still thirsty, and clean water is still hard to find. Let’s be honest about what’s really happening. Gaza’s Water System Is Broken The water crisis in Gaza didn’t start today, but the war has made it much worse. Many wells, water pipes, and desalination plants have been destroyed. Without working systems,
