Cryptocurrency expert Waqar Zaka is calling on digital professionals to step up and support Palestinians. The renowned Pakistani host and crypto advocate has launched a significant initiative to ensure aid reaches those affected by the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
In a recent YouTube video, Zaka urged digital creators and the public to contribute to relief efforts, emphasizing the urgent need for food and medicine as thousands of children face starvation in the war-torn area.
Zaka, recognized for his philanthropic efforts and strong social media presence, expressed deep concern over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, highlighting the immediate need for assistance amid the blockade and relentless bombardment by Israeli forces. He also announced plans to visit Gaza soon to provide direct support and assess the situation firsthand.
During the video, Zaka featured a resident from Khan Younis, a city in southern Gaza, who shared harrowing accounts of destruction and the challenges of receiving aid in such dire conditions.
As of October 2023, reports indicate that at least 42,409 people in Gaza have been killed and 99,153 injured due to Israeli attacks.
This is not the first time Zaka has advocated for humanitarian causes; he has previously spoken out about the plight of the Rohingya people as well.
