This person/fund has been independently verified. Before posting concerns/FUD about a fund, please do some research and verification of your own. There ARE ways to confirm.

I'm a big supporter of Bitcoin charitable causes, but I feel I must speak up about this post. Gaza is under a full blockade. I can envision no way that bitcoin would be useful in Gaza right now. Furthermore, it is impossible to properly do your homework to be certain where and for what purposes your donation will be used. Even more seriously, you may open yourself up to serious legal consequences if you decide to take a chance.
It's your bitcoin, but I would think about what I said.

you are welcome to ask questions how its useful rather than assume that bitcoin isn't useful right now. Donations have proven to be a lifeline to people on the ground to allow those without any resources to access something. I had it independently verified that the first water we helped fund was the first water in 3 days that people got. I have known people on the ground for a while now and trust them. I happily take the imagined legal risk to help people facing genocide as I know its genuinely helping civilians. The Israelis should be worried about their own legal risk for committing crimes against humanity.

Thanks for your response. You have provided more information, which I appreciate. I do have more questions:
What is the bitcoin situation in Gaza post 10/7?
Are there ways to get food and water into Gaza?
