Moazzam Malik, Chief Executive of Save the Children UK: Working on the ground in Gaza

Jamie Coomarasamy speaks to Moazzam Malik, Chief Executive of
Save the Children UK, about operating on the ground in Gaza.


They’re one of a number of non-governmental organisations, or
NGOs, operating in the Gaza strip amid a backdrop of the ongoing
war between Israel and Hamas.


On 22 August, the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification
(IPC), declared that half a million people – around a quarter of
Gaza’s population – are suffering from famine. The report was
labelled an "outright lie" by Israel, which has denied there is
starvation in the territory. You’re going to hear about Save the
Children’s work on the ground, the conditions their staff are
operating under, how they lobby politicians, and the implications
of the situation in Gaza on future international cooperation.
