Czechs confuse humanitarian crisis in Gaza with politics, says NGO worker

Radio Prague International - Topic «Politics»

The war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas has been going on for over two months, with a devastating impact on the civilian population. Caritas is one of the NGOs that is there trying to help, and is also calling for an immediate ceasefire – in stark contrast to the Czech government, who voted against such a move. I spoke to Lenka Pipková, Foreign Communications Manager at Caritas Czech Republic to find out more about the difficulties of raising money for the appeal and what the situation is like on the ground.
