Venezuela has set up a collection center at the Foreign Ministry headquarters in Caracas to receive humanitarian aid. This center will help people affected by the genocidal campaign of the Israeli regime against Palestine and Lebanon in West Asia, stated Venezuela’s Foreign Minister Yván Gil.
This Monday, October 7, through a public statement, Gil highlighted that those who wish to contribute supplies to help these besieged sister peoples can do so with mattresses, tents, blankets, warm clothing, non-perishable food items, baby formulas and diapers, serums, gauze, antibiotics, disinfectants, iodine, and tools to remove debris (shovels, raincoats, safety glasses, and gloves).

“Solidarity with our sister peoples in the Middle East is crucial in these times of imperialist fascism,” wrote FM Gil. “We invite you to come to the Foreign Ministry and make your donation to help those who need it most. Every effort counts.”
