IAC has opened a fund to help the people affected by the conflict in Palestine. While many organizations and people are working to help the Palestinian people, many of Maldives’ media came together to host a telethon as well.

This telethon received MVR 12,989,372.72 and USD 8,672.38.

During this telethon, State Trading Organization (STO) donated MVR 1 million to Palestine in the name of all their employees, shareholders, and subsidiaries.

After the October 7th surprise attack on Israel by Palestine’s Hamas Group, Israel declared war against Palestine.  The Palestinian Health Ministry has previously stated that one Palestinian dies every five minutes from Israeli attacks.

Israel has cut off basic necessities such as water and electricity to Gaza and is fighting to kill over two million Palestinian Muslims. Over 2,800 Palestinian Muslims have been killed so far with more than 10,000 people sustaining various injuries.
