  "account": "MyCare board member Dr Fauziah Mohd Hasan has called for NGOs providing aid to Gaza to coordinate their efforts to maximize impact and ensure assistance reaches those in need effectively. The most urgent needs are food, clean water, and shelter, as existing tents are worn out and overcrowded. Single mothers and children require psychosocial support due to trauma. Fauziah emphasized the importance of coordination to prevent fragmented aid delivery. She also highlighted the need to clear rubble left by the war to rebuild Gaza's infrastructure, advocating for major powers to play a role. Despite an announced ceasefire, aid is still blocked, bombings continue, and the situation remains dire. MyCare Johor is targeting RM150,000 in donations through the Bina Semula Gaza campaign, having raised RM594,589 as of Aug 5, 2026.",
