On December 28, 2025, Israel announced it plan to bar 37 humanitarian organizations from operating in the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt). This includes Humanity & Inclusion, Doctors Without Borders, Norwegian Refugee Council, Defence for Children International Palestine, and Oxfam-Quebec. As Al-Haq noted: “The announcement follows Israel’s introduction, in March 2025, of additional registration requirements, whose aim is to consolidate its genocidal conduct in Gaza –– of which denial of access to humanitarian aid remains a central element ­­–– to further fragment and isolate the Palestinian people from international support.”

Israel has a long-standing history of impeding access, evidenced by the nearly two decades long blockade of Gaza, all in pursuit of its settler colonial project. This is also not the first time Israel has suspended humanitarian organizations activity. In 2024, Israeli parliament banned UNRWA, “the principal provider of aid, education, health and social services to Palestinian refugees across Gaza, the occupied West Bank and neighbouring countries for decades.” Then and now, Israel accuses aid organizations of support and cover for “terrorism”; an ironic accusation from an apartheid state committing genocide and war crimes.

States, including Canada, have legal obligations to take concrete actions to hold Israel accountable and enforce international law.  Read more.

We are pleased to share our 2025 Annual Report. We are grateful to have collaborated with and worked alongside so many incredible groups, organizations, and individuals this year.

Thank you for all the support. We will continue this work in 2026 and beyond. We are committed to this work rooted in anti-imperialism, decolonization, and the struggles of peoples oppressed by colonial systems globally, with a focus on the people of Kashmir and Palestine. 

Read and/or download the full report.

As a grassroots organization, we rely on incredible volunteers and community support to do this work.

We are fortunate to collaborate with a ton of amazing people, but at the core we’re a two person team. Your financial support will allow us to continue this work in 2026.

We have intentionally chosen not to register as a charitable organization. This means we do not provide tax receipts. There are many reasons for this decision, including a refusal to participate in the charitable industrial complex. But, the reality remains that do to the work, our small team needs support.
